- 12 Common CSS Mistakes Web Developers Make September 8, 2010
  Let’s get real for a second here. As far as web languages go, CSS is arguably the simplest. I mean, really, what could be easier than a simple list of properties affecting an element? And the syntax is almost like written English. Want to change the font size? There’s a font-size CSS property. How about the color? There’s the color property. But despite its […]

- Better than a Paywall May 26, 2010
  I'm impressed by the way the Guardian is engaging creatively with the internet instead of locking itself up inside a paywall. […]

  I've used this feature on a test server. It's giving me much more flexibility with fewer page templates. […]
- Guardian report on British Council evolution survey results is inaccurate. October 25, 2009
  The poll is far broader in scope. The summary from the pollster's website is:"New research, conducted by Ipsos MORI for the British Council, investigating awareness of Charles Darwin and attitudes towards evolution, has found that there is a broad international consensus of acceptance towards his theory of evolution."http://www.ipsos-mori.com/ […]
- It's not about you, it's about us October 2, 2009
  If you go into a bar, a restaurant, a convention or a dinner party you would not assume that all conversations were about you, or that you needed to participate in all of them simultaneously. Google Wave is like that. It's easy to see public conversations, and you can join in, but you don't have to. You can find the few people that interest you and […]
- These are the best cakes I have ever eaten. September 27, 2009
  I used to work within walking distance of Maison Blanc and would use any excuse to sample one of their cakes. My wife and I still obsess over the taste and texture of one particular cake base. My mouth is watering just thinking about the taste. Must visit Oxford again soon. […]
- The Sidewiki ranking algorithm can be seen in action on the New York Times home page. September 27, 2009
  At the time of writing only the two meatier posts are visible. The remainder have been relegated to the second page. I think the voting system will have an impact on the tone of the comments, as will the linking comments to a users profile. […]

- You own that site and I own these comments. September 27, 2009
  I'm intrigued by the question of ownership of engagement and discussion. I'm seeing a lot of successful bloggers expressing a lot of outrage, and yet normally receiving comments is something that bloggers love, excepting spam, unless it's really good spam. As I'm typing this I don't see what I'm doing as a defacement. My comment […]
- Balsamiq works well for me September 27, 2009
  I've used it on a couple of projects and found that it saves a lot of time, especially in the early stages. It's very convenient to be able to sit with a client and create a mockup of a site in a single meeting instead of having to bounce emails back and fore. Being able to type the names of controls and have them dropped straight into the workspac […]
