Two posts in a month? WTF!?


Sometimes, in freelance, “when it rains, it pours.” Last few weeks, I’ve been hammered with work (yay!), but I’m coming up for air in order to breathe a little bit of life back into this site (so many mixed metaphors, so little time…).

Anyway, a little while back, I added del.icio.us links to the sidebar. I’ll try to keep them HTML/CSS/freelance related so that they’re useful to readers here. And, I wanted to point out a few of the ones that you might have missed but are worth checking out:

Freelance Switch: An awesome site, with great, relevant articles for web/graphic freelancers. In its own words: “a Community & Resource for freelancers of all varieties – designers, writers, programmers, illustrators, photographers …”

Linux Font Equivalents to Popular Web Typefaces: An excellent article on Linux fonts. I don’t think about Linux much when building sites, but I should. This is a good place to start.

SWFObject: I’ve been working with a designer who likes to create Flash headers, and this is his method of inserting them while leaving the layer of HTML below accessible to the search engines.

BlogMate: Blogging in TextMate. Brilliant! In its own words: “BlogMate is a free, graphical plug-in (+ a bundle too) for the popular TextMate editor that enables creating and editing blog posts for MetaWeblog-enabled blogs, Twitter, and Jaiku accounts from a floating palette within TextMate.”

(Aside: Is the Mac app world more lively and innovative than the Windows world right now, or are Mac apps just getting more press?)

Slightly less flashy than BlogMate, I’ve been using a combination of e Text Editor and the It’s All Text add-on for Firefox to create blog posts . It works, when I remember to use it.

Almost all notice all regarding the compelling means you deliver valuable solutions via your web blog and in addition recommend response from some others on the subject matter and our simple princess is really understanding a lot. Take advantage of the rest of the new year. You’re the one conducting a dazzling job.

  7. This design is wicked! You certainly know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
