Here’s an interesting thought: Bill Gates Must Go from Keep Trying (via
OK, so today is my “tinkering” day. I finally got around to adding the “No Follow” functionality Moveable Type provides to help thwart comment spammers. (For those unfamiliar, it doesn’t stop the spammers, it just eliminates any benefit they get by telling search engines not to up their rank just because I’m inadvertantly linking to [...]
OK, I can’t stand it anymore. I’ve been staring at the same style on this blog for something like a couple of years now and I absolutely have to change it. I’ve put together a variation on one of the stock MT styles, here, which I guess will work. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no artistic [...]
I don’t have time to write it up right now, but Top 2 IE CSS bugs confronted (hacks ensue) – The CSS Weblog – css.weblogsinc.com links to a couple of very good hacks to get around CSS problems in IE. (Yes, that means that I WILL get around to fixing that annoying overlap IE users [...]
Here’s a cool technique for creating rounded corners using only CSS and no images. Gotta get this page revamped…
I am now the proud user of a Windows 2000/Linux dual boot system. Not that it was easy, mind you. At one point my 160 Gig drive was reporting that it had two partitions: 82 Gig and 534 Gig. Obviously that was wrong. So Support told me I’d need to do a “low level format” [...]

Improbulus posted the code for auto-translating Webpages/blogs, and it’s really, really easy. She posted a Javascript version that works for anything and a non-Javascript version for Blogger. Here’s the non-Javascript version for the Movable Type Individual Entry Archive template, which uses the $MTEntryPermalink variable: <div style=”border-style:none; font-size: 1; text-align: center; margin: 10px;”> <!– //By Improbulus, [...]
Now here’s a fun idea. The brain behind “A Consuming Experience”, who unfortunatly doesn’t have a name anywhere obvious, so I can’t refer to it has figured out how to do “Automatic” translation of blog posts. Something to think about… [Update: That would be a lady named "Improbulus", as I've since been chided. ] Technorati [...]
Ever been building a web page and wishing you didn’t have to do the old trial-and-error in guessing color values? OK, maybe that’s just me, but the VisiBone Webmaster’s Color Lab not only gives you the hex values for the 216 “browser-safe” colors, but also enables you to choose several and see not only how [...]
