- Google Chart API - Google Code: Holy shit that’s nifty.
- How Many HTML Elements Can You Name in 5 Minutes?: 38. Wow. I am out of practice.
- reCAPTCHA: Stop Spam, Read Books: I gave in. Comments on all old entires are now open again, but you have to prove you’re human. The spammers haven’t yet won, but we’ve all lost a little bit.
- LoJAX: Potentially useful.
It’s a very iterative process for me. My first web site was a two-celled table, and I can trace the design of this weblog, up until the change to wordpress, all the way back to that original, primitive ancestor. That is how I design, change by tiny change. I have never in my life considered opening photoshop first when designing something, my primary tools are a text editor and a browser. Save, reload, repeat.
All this, naturally, is my way of explaining why this still looks a lot like the default wordpress template, with a few tiny changes that normal people (ie, not me) probably wouldn’t notice. I did, I think, manage to put my signature on it with an economy of changes though. And by ‘my signature’ I mean the Three Orange Dots™.
