Serious photo retouching.

This is actually pretty amazing.

Syncing bookmarks on two PC’s

Just got a new server at home. Rather than manually copy all my firefox bookmarks from one machine to the other I highly recommend you check out Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer by Foxmarks Inc.

Foxmarks keeps your bookmarks automatically synchronized between two or more computers. A simple wizard guides you through the startup process. Foxmarks works silently in the background. As a bonus feature, you can access your bookmarks from anywhere via my.foxcloud.com. It’s simple and solid.

Both machines were synced in about 2 minutes. Cool.

OK I’m going to nerd out for a second

Because Roger Johansson over at http://www.456bereastreet.com in Sweden took SO much time putting these screenshots together I figured I’d link it up. Learn all you want to know about using CSS to style form controls. As he puts it: “Because of all this I spent way too much time creating a total of 224 screenshots showing the effects of various CSS rules applied to form controls. The screenshots are taken from 8 browsers on 4 operating systems, for a total of 14 different browser + OS combinations.”

Finally got pics from New Year’s up

We stayed in Hawaii over New Years for 10 days with Tom Hughes and Jessica Jensen. Ever been to Kona? Nice place. Mauna Kea to be exact. Highly recommended.

Review of 2006 predictions

The Seattle PI reviewed some of our 2006 predictions and the results were quite interesting. The review of my predictions for 2006 could have been worse. Faired pretty well on many of them. Others did well too. Have a read!
