  • In an ideal world the content of a web site would be laid out before the design. But as we all know this world is far from ideal. And as a designer/developer I find myself constantly relying on Lorem Ipsum. I thought we all agreed at how great it is to have dummy text in our toolbox. Guess I was wrong. Lorem Ipsum is Killing Your Design vs. In Defense of Lorem Ipsum
  • Sandwiches. I love them. But they can get bland real fast. Here are a couple ways to sex up your sandwich
  • Actors. Athletes. Musicians. Business leaders. Drug addicts. Stories. (via I Am Second)
  • It’s twenty-ten and we now have a sarcasm symbol. Finally. I wonder how hard it would be to install not only this application but also an actual key on my keyboard. How about replacing the ‘V’ key? I don’t use that key ery much anyway.
  • One of my favorite things to experience when attending concerts is when the various bands collaborate for one amazing song. This one definitely made my week. “Stand By Me” (Ben E. King cover) for the nonprofit organization To Write Love On Her Arms.
  • I’ve always heard that animals can give early warning signs of natural disasters. Fortunately I’ve never witnessed an early warning. But this dog gave an early warning of the earthquake in Haiti.
  • If DailyBooth is the new Twitter, I’m resisting until I hear a valid excuse.
  • I shared this with my good friend B.Hill. He seemed to enjoy it and I think you will too. Hiromi: Pachelbel’s Canon, Reinvented
  • And last, but not least. What blog post is complete without mentioning this season’s American Idol one-hit-wonder? This year its Larry Platt’s Pants on the Ground. People are already covering the song, including Brett Favre.

  3. Nice to see that there are blog owners that care about their blogs and not post all kind of useless stuff but rather try to keep it clean and valuable for the sake of their subscribers. You’ve done a great job and i thank you for that and also for not traumatizing me with useless garbage and spam.You know, if you look for new ways to promote and improve you blog, i’ve open myself a corner of cyberspace and i would like to share it with you and your visitors, because it’s a good chance for anyone to learn how they can promote their websites and any online business if they have any for free or very low costs.I’m still getting it done and working on it as we speak, so it’s not as i wish but it’s a work in progress that already has value to it. If you care and wann help maybe you will link to it and why not let your friends know. It will get crazy this month cause i will give away alot of goodies.Visit:
