I thought Designers Don't Read was great (don't let the name fool you). It's basically an art director's take on advertising and design with bits of history and insights thrown in: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1581156650

In my opinion, Mozilla should have put more effort into seamless background updates before starting their 6-week release cycles. (Unleash the fanboys...)

I used a combination of Tab Atkins' and the MooTools ASCII art ( https://github.com/khrome/MooAsciiArt.js ) algorithms. The four ASCII options came from those two libraries, as well (I played around with the values on various pictures until

After using App Engine for two projects at the beginning of this year, I have to say that Heroku is better in almost every way (especially if your app is already open-source and using git for version control). The ability to use an actual p

I definitely agree that commandline is the right way to go (the site is actually built using the Node.js clean-css script). I built the site with a friend in mind (and those who never really interact with their terminal).

Completely agree that a commandline tool is optimal — the site is actually built off of the clean-css commandline minifier. The real world use case is currently one of my developer friends is using the Foundation framework by Zurb (which co
