In lieu of a massive post, full of fantastic-ness, I’ve decided to clue you into my world just a little bit. Many time’s I’ll come across a great internet resource and mentally note to blog about it, but with a busy life, a wife, a 2 year-old and another kid on the way, I’m finding that I just don’t have the time. Will I continue to do tutorials or little ditties on CSS or freebies? Sure I will and I plan to. But for now, let me tell you about some cool things I found today.
- Digitally Imported Electronic Internet Radio
Rather, refound, I used to listen to Digitally Imported internet radio all the time in my college years. I recently rediscovered my love for it while telling a friend about it. In case you didn’t know, I <3 all music electronica.
- TiltViewer Flash Image Viewer
The first time I saw this viewer, it was over at Signal Noise and I thought it was pretty cool. I used to love flash and flash image galleries, but since, my love for flash has faded. Nevertheless, this is still a rockin’-cool looking flash image viewer.
- Buero Ink
Markus Shaefer’s logo work is stunning as well as his minimalist site. Even though my work doesn’t reflect it, I love minimalism and simple, monotone forms.
- display:inline-block;
During my day job at Dealerspan as a UI designer, our target broswer is Firefox 3+. This means I get to use
display:inline-block;all day long and it is such a time saver. No more floating! - :hover:focus
If you ever want to simulate an “onpress” selector in CSS, this is handy. Use
a:hover:focus. - “Star Wars” - an a capella tribute to John Williams
This a capella video is amazing. From Star Wars to Jaws to Jurassic Park, I nerded out!
I suggest a new strategy: let the Wookie win…
- Wilson Miner’s Website
I love Wilson Miner’s minimalist site. Wait…he did the redesign for Apple.com? No wonder I like his style.
- Apple Keyboard
After asking a ton of people on twitter, I broke down and bought the new apple keyboard. I love it. It so totally rocks compared to the plastic breadbox I was using before.
- Cold Calling Monetizing for n00bs
A legit way to monetize your blog or vlog. Just call the company and ask them!
- Coda updated to 1.6 Plugins Available
Of the myriads of updates and new feautres that Panic packs into every update, one feature stands out from the crowd: Plugins. That’s right - you can develop your own plugins for Coda. That’s freaktastically rad.
That’s it for today peeps. Let me know if you like this and want me to keep it up. Cheers!
Heh, that’s a pretty awesome list there.
Wow….what a great idea for posts and some very interesting finds as well.
about the display in CSS and the “onpress” selector, never knew. I gotta keep those in mind.
Liking Tiltviewer, CSS tricklets, and Star Wars A Cappella. Can’t stand the old Apple keyboards either.
We have those keyboards here at my school in the Mac Lab, and I agree, there a pain.
Sweet stuff, keep it up :)
Excellent pointers and analysis…
Great list, thanks.
I’m using the apple keyboard with the wire at the moment and was thinking but getting the wireless one.
Although it looks really small compared to the one I have just now. Quite a N00B question here but can anyone tell me if when you turn the imac on does the keyboard turn on as well? haha.
