Run Safari 4 beta and Safari 3 on the same mac →
Handy for web-dev ^_^V I’m guessing there’s rendering differences between the new Webkit & all it’s fancy-pants CSS effects & the old one, which people will probably still be using in 10 years time …

It would be cool if an application-specific exposé (F10) in Safari “exploded” all the tags :) into separate entities…

Safari 4 βeta
Chrome did a tidier job on the tabs on top thing. (Who’d have thought Google would create a nicer interface element than Apple?) Apple beats Chrome & Opera on the top sites thing, even if it is a little slow. They should have merged the search box & the location bar. The location bar, with its mix of “search history” and URL input is a little ambiguous when...

XHTML 2.0, HTML5 and SEO →
As a web developer coming from a background of organising information, I find the addition of more semantics to (X)HTML, a good thing. Most developers/designers worth their salt encode pages with loose semantics, i.e. adding meaningful class & id attributes (rather than purely presentational ones), which can be manipulated via the CSS. As a web developer, having to iron out all the bugs for...

“I wouldn’t have legs, I’d, err, go for slug juice…”

Coda: Wrap Text With Tag
I really need to write a “wrap selected text with tag” plug-in for Coda. There’s one that allows you to wrap text with predefined tags, but the power of TextMate & Dreamweaver’s free form editor is The Radness.

I got hella used to using keywords in Firefox/Chrome to define searches. Between defining words in & out of English/French with fren & enfr, respectively, defining PHP functions as well as performing simple web queries, half of what I typed in the location bar was defined by such keywords. Switching (back) to Safari made me realise how reliant I had come on this in my workflow, and that...

GMail Interfacing
Ooooh, Google have updated the GMail interface with some prettier buttons. Note to self: the new keyboard shortcut to add a label is simply “L”. And what’s more, you don’t have to click back in the conversation list window to use other keyboard shortcuts. That’ll increase my productivity by at least 3 seconds per day … héh

Super Bowl + Twitter →
Nice time-based visualisation of Tweets during the Super Bowl from the New York Times. Filtering on people saying “go” provides a chuckle, and it’s quite interesting what they’ve done with the Talking about ads … I’d like to get back into data visualisation.
