I found this free iPhoto Flickr export tool, FFXporter, today. It’s working without a hitch so far.

I just cleanly installed Mac OS X 10.5 tonight. Once I installed Mac OS X 10.5, the first thing I did as a web developer was to install my favorite Firefox plugins. Here’s a list of my essential plugins, what are yours?

ColorZilla

This is a beautiful video on Web2.0. What is Web2.0? Web2.0 is how we teach the machine the way we think (or does the machine teach us?). Wiki’s, blogs, tagging, bookmarking…what is it all? This is a beautifully done video, without vocal commentary, on the Web2.0 movement.

One interesting idea I’ve come across recently is the […]

Yes, bald can be beautiful but not when it’s associated with a developer pulling their hair out trying to find CSS styles are not used on a site. Finding CSS that is unused is a pain to say the least.
