Handy Tool

Just found a handy tool online called CSSEdit. Its a pretty damn cool Mac OS X app that lets you edit style sheets in a much more straightforward way.

So now i don’t have any excuses for fixing the colors on my blog (except for the fact that I have no taste when it comes to such things)…

They’ve GOT to be kidding

Its not April 1st so I really dn’t understand… are they SERIOUS?

Even funnier – the latest earth shattering innovation from MSFT is Athens. The biggest thing I can tell in this announcement is a monitor that has an eMail waiting light and a phone that will mute your music when you answer it… LORD… I know i’m an Apple head so they have to go a long way to impress me.. But PLEASE.. is that REALLY the best they can do these days?

Anyway… Just funny…

More Sillyness

Found another cool tip to get nice titles in your web page using javascript and style sheets… just more sillyness but being the big ol’ geek that I am I had to wire ’em up… Will probably tone down the usage once the novelty wears of but in the mean time its kidna fun! 🙂

(oh yea… just roll your mouse over any link to see ’em… Like this one.)

Colors

Ugggg… Sorry kevin, as well coordinated as these colors may be on here, they’re REALLY hard to read…

I’ll fix ’em ASAP.. Can’t let myself do that right now though or I’ll waste the day doing that instead of the job that they pay me to do…

(Ok.. I did lighten the link color – that helps out some… have to sit down with kevin and look at the rest since he’s Mr. Color)

iTunes and Addiction

Ok… So there’s no hiding that i’m a big Apple Fan… Been that way since WAY before I started workin here… But this iTunes / iTunes store is WAY cool… and its DANGEROUS… Two things in particular have prove a way cool time sync…

– Sharing Music via Rendevouz: If you’re on a network (like at work) you can share your music so other people can listen to what you have while you’re connected… No stealing music.. no copying.. just sharing.. Our whole floor at work has made a tacet agreement to share their libraries so now I have a HUGE collection of tunes to get me through the work day..

– Music Shopping: This is REALLY DAMN COOL… iTunes is wired to a store so you can go find the music you want up there, listen to previews, and buy the stuff you want… legally… REALLY DANGEROUS… WAY too easy to get tunes in a way that doesn’t make me feel guilty… 😉

Nuff rah rah stuff.. Just had to share! 🙂 So DAMN COOL…

Just in a cheery mood today I guess! :):)
