As has already been stated, your layout needs work. Looks like you've got a table (gasp!) that is not clearing the floated status bar content or something. The layout is extremely simple, I think you are overcomplicating it by using a "blue

Don't be silly, there are plenty of beaches that allow camping. Just jump over the coastal range from Mountain View and you're in Half Moon Bay.

Yeah I didn't follow that statement in the article either, about as "big as a CRV on the inside ... it seats two". Last time I checked, the CRV is a small SUV, with 5 seats and plenty of cargo space. Not sure I follow your "heavy as hell co

It's interesting to hear from type designer, certainly not a voice that is heard often enough, at least not in the web developer community. His concern that "someone can take one of our fonts, put it in a freely accessible directory on thei

Is Omniture really a direct competitor with Google Analytics? I haven't used it (Omniture) in a long time, but last time I did we used it extensively for A-B testing, click tracking and other user-experience type events that I don't general

Sure, but there has been this stalemate between font foundries and web designers for well over 10 years. I think this whole @font-face (1) thing is exactly what is needed to shake some sense into the foundries. Designers will start using th

It's just italic. Not bold, not cursive, not "narrow letter spacing". Just plain ol' italic, or oblique for the pedantic.

I just hope they add a new feature that fixes all the network connectivity issues I have when my phone isn't connected to wifi. Maps, mail, browser ... they don't work more often than they do.

If you have planar fasciitis (many people do), your running shoes are not a lie. Less padding is pure evil in that situation.

From looking at the conclusion of this post, and also the other posts that were linked to, it seems like this person writes about twitter so that they can get more followers. You shouldn't have to convince anyone but yourself why you would

Been bit by that more than a few times, that's why I always freeze rails now. It is the only way. Things should be simpler and more reliable. ps. I love that you're running your blog through github. Very ingenious.

But it's the non-obvious discrepancies that I'm more concerned with. I have no qualms about blocking people when their following/follower ratio is off-kilter.

A4 cannot be directly compared to an M3. Not in terms of price, nor performance. Not even the same ballpark.

Take a look at the source, they use an onclick to calculate the destination URL on the fly. I believe this part has been in use for quite some time.

That slide is a bit confusing. At first it seems to be condoning the use of CSS background images to give the perception of faster loading, but then he says that it was bad for IE ... which effectively is saying you shouldn't do it. That sl

But at that point in the interview you've just mentioned that you made $1-$3 per user, with millions of users active each month, and you were paying 10 cents for a portion of those users. Of course the first thing people are going to is the
