maths maths maths [yoi]

Well I was looking around the web for a while to day, in between revision sessions for (yoi) maths today and one of the things I came across was this article on how not to abuse the class attribute. It does seem that many people are getting into CSS - but only far enough to see the visual aspects offered and not the accesibility ideas behind them.

Also discovered today was 0sil8 whcih I found rather amusing. And nicly designed… two things that often miss the mark, so was nice to see the two together.

Since the demise of XSWeekly, the LS community has really mainly had news sites like ShellFront and Grapic-Language. However, Ravi is looking to set up a more zine style of site over at shell-shocked, which looks promicing, so I’d go and check it out. I may even contribute one of these days.

becoming human also looks nice, not massivly indepth I don’t think, but a good starting point if you are interested… also a nice show of broadband if you have the connection to stomach it!

Hehe, it is nice to see that some aspects of sharpE have influenced other shell developers.

Oh, and desktopian was four years old yesterday. Congrats to them!

OK kids, be careful

Have a look at this page at The Register before you download XP SP1.

Heh:

You have been warned. (Well no, not you but this guy you know, OK?).

Comments anyone?

Maybe a good time to get yourself a free copy on Sun Solaris on DVD. Or just stick to Linux, of course.

So true

I’d like to refer you all to the following article, just ‘cause it’s so true, and also applies to the shell scene also in many ways. Think about it.

ShellOn needs and wants

Ok kids, I’d like to know what you want in ShellOn. There are a few cavats, however. v3 is just a shell swapper, so no wallpaper changer etc. Also, download the v3 beta and check that out before posting any requests, as development will be from that base. My current todo includes improving the scripting, so suggestions on what you’d like in there are very welcome. Also any syntax ideas you have are welcome.

Please use the comments function, so I have everything in one place :) Thanks!

Update: note to self - some comments are at ShellFront. heh :)

Update 2: Download v3 from here

1,000,000(ish) changes

Well if you have visited the site more than once today, you’ll have noticed that the style of the front page was changed about four times in various minor ways. For now I’m happy with this style, but that might change, of course…

Revision and CSS style changes seem to be complementary. heh.
