Get Me My Tricorder!

CSS Tabs Hiding And Showing

I was playing around with li:hover from all those CSS Tabs and Submenus examples that have been popping up on the it-ner-web and decided that it woudl be fun if I could do the same thing with content. It’s a little messy and so far only works in Mozilla, but it’s funny: Tab Content – […]

OS X Utilities – For Fun!

Everyday Software (found via Splorp) creates great (and cheap!) utilities for OS X well worth their weight in gold. I can’t wait to get my serial number for Bookit, to manage all of my bookmarks in the dozen or so browsers I have installed on my Powerbook. The other nuisance in OS X has been […]

Idee Fixe – Step Two

And The Logo Is…

Revolution OS – A Review

I’m watching the Spurs/Mavs game, so this may end up chock full of basketball metaphors. Last week, I watched Revolution OS. If you haven’t heard of it, it’s a documentary about the birth and rise of the free software movement and Linux. The film is full of interviews of such open source/free software luminaries as […]

MTaste – And More?

I read about mtaste a while ago, and thought it was an interesting idea. Unfortunately, I was really busy when it first came up and I promptly forgot all about it. Then, Mr. Frank wondered aloud about what the best way to implement it in a database, and that got me to thinking. How would […]
