Opera 7.20 beta was released this week… Not many major changes other than some bug fixes and speed improvements. It supports percentage heights for tables now, which is nice. But for some reason they also added support for the < blink> and < marquee> tags. I have no idea why they would do this… It’s […]
I’m referring to downloadable digital wallpapers or desktop backgrounds, not paper wallpaper to put on the wall…
It’s really freakin’ annoying when you find a cool wallpaper that you want to download, only to have to click on a link, download a Zip file, unzip it, find the file on your hard drive, open it, then […]
Zeldman and Douglas Bowman of StopDesign are teaming up to redesign the Apple.com web site. I can’t wait to see what they come up with. Douglas is an excellent designer and has worked on Wired.com among many other large sites. And of course Zeldman is Mr. standards compliance. I can’t say I really enjoy all […]

On the X-files last night, Arthur Dales told Mulder about his experiences with aliens back in the 50’s. Apparently all of the great baseball players are/were aliens, and they have acid for blood. So if you are going to kill aliens, you probably shouldn’t do it with a shotgun or chainsaw or anything, ‘cause their […]
