In a nutshell, Facebook have in their wisdom decided to combine 3 interactions into 1. These interactions are:

1. Like (as in: like a status, like a photo, etc.)
2. Become a fan (as in join a page for a product, person or service)
3. Share (as in post a link to your wall etc.)

CSS3 Watch is a new blog I setup, the other day, with the aim of collecting experiments, creative techniques and interesting examples of CSS3. Powered by Tumblr, the site grabs my special link feed from Delicious – please add the account to your network for the latest CSS3 links.

Having marvelled at David Desandro’s Opera Logo made entirely in HTML and CSS, I wanted to try a similar experiment for myself. So with a large scoop of border-radius I set about trying to create various ‘common’ icons that could be used in your web apps.

CSS3 is awesome, but the new syntax is sometimes hard to get your head around. Thankfully though, a few kind souls have created some very useful tools to generate the code for you.

As some may know, recently I designed a couple of new Textpattern admin themes called Prometheus and Stung. They are essentially the same theme with different colour-schemes.

I’m really excited to announce the launch of the new Tristan Fitzgerald Associates website – http://tfa-ltd.co.uk/. I’ve been working closely with Dan Angell (of TFA) over the past month to produce a simple, clean and informative site. I designed the logo, the site and built it using Textpattern, a sprinkling of HTML 5 and a few CSS 3 techniques; the awesome jQuery Tools was used for the tabs on the home page (expect a full write-up on my portfolio).

I have recently been designing some html emails for Arc & Co and they needed an email link within the body of their email. This link needed to include a subject, CC, BCC and body text and I did not know the syntax for all of it, so Google to the rescue where I stumbled upon a simple article on the University of Nebraska-Lincolns’s website which I am reproducing and adding to here for reference.

I wrote recently about my recommended ‘default’ apps for running on your mac, I have been doing some reading and have found quite a few more examples from other blogs.
