  • Tweetstalk is an interesting & unexpected way to "stalk" Twitter users when you don't necessarily want to follow them. It's a damn creative way to utilize the Twitter API and Firefox Plugins, too.
  • Versions, the Mac Subversion Client, is finally out. As Dave Simon stated, the ultimate in vaporware is no more.
  • Seth Godin: The Media, Selling The Drama.
  • Glarkware has a badass Cylon toaster shirt for sale. WANT!
  • OS Form Elements: Layered PSDs for the form elements of 3 major browsers. Helpful for mockups. (via JSM)

So here we are — it's November 1st and CSSReboot day. It arrives with mixed success. I spent so long getting to a comp of my site that I was remotely satisfied with that I'm left with a [barely] half functioning site. I know, I know — it's got some a lot of bum links and some unstyled text floating around, but my happiness is derived from knowing that I got the custom structure and styling integrated with my MovableType CMS. And that was on the first try, too!

So expect lots of tinkering in the coming days, weeks, and months. Not just with appearance and function, but writing as well. There have been some people (Maigen) that have bugged me for a long time about my lack of posting on the blogs I've set up. I feel now that I have a site I'm proud of, it's time to practice my voice and find a meaningful purpose behind this portal to my life.

So once I get my "about" page set up, I guess it's going to need a manifesto. Until then, enjoy! And most importantly — congratulations to all of my fellow rebooters!!!
