Zeldman, but Pheonix thinks so.
No matter how many times I clear out all of my caches every time I
click on my favorites link for Zeldman's site, the shortcut icon for
my site changes to his in my favorites. It beats me, I don't even use
a shortcut icon.

I decided this week to learn Python, and I'm glad that I am. I
really like it as a language so far, and thanks to Dive Into Python (by Mark), I've picked it up
quickly.

SXSW - Zeldman keynote
SXSW - Zeldman keynote
03/14/2005 05:09 PMWes Felter is here -
lots of other Austin peeps.
Here's Scoble and Eric Rice:
Zeldman is going over the same old issues - XHTML standards, coolio
insider clique games (geting into conferences w/o paying), and....
He's also just siad he was afraid that his baby was on fire.
Safari Response: zeldman.com
Safari Response: zeldman.com
03/11/2003 09:44 AMZeldman writes about a couple of Safari issues. The first issue is
Safari's limited support for the titl
e attribute. We're going to dump our implementation in the status
bar and just use a tooltip-style implementation instead (and yes,
we'll pick up support for acronym and abbr at the same time). This
was sort of an intermediate hack to just get something out there for
title attributes on links only. We'll dump it once we do the full
TITLE support in a tooltip.
Second, the question about .ico files.
The .ico file format actually contains multiple bitmaps, which can
have varying color depths and sizes. The engine rendering an .ico has
to make a decision regarding which ico to use, and this can get pretty
complex, e.g., do you take the 32x32 in 16-bit color, or the 16x16 in
8-bit color? The former results in a scale, but the latter is a lower
color depth. A naive decoder will simply use the first .bmp
encountered inside the .ico, even if it's an inferior color depth.
Safari just uses the Cocoa NSImage object for displaying .icos, and
I suspect that the decoder may be pretty naive about its selection of
the appropriate bitmap. In my opinion, color depth should be highest
priority. In other words you should try to find a .bmp with matching
color depth for your screen first, and then prioritize 16x16 above
other sizes only after the best color depth has been determined).
I will look into this issue in Cocoa and see what we're doing right
now.

Couple-Three-Line Book Review:
"Designing with Web Standards" by
Jeffrey Zeldman
Couple-Three-Line Book Review:
"Designing with Web Standards" by
Jeffrey Zeldman
12/11/2003 04:52 PM
I spent the weekend with
Zeldman's
can't-put-it-down-despite-it-being-a-book-on-CSS
"Designing with Web Standards". Now I've not been in the web
design game since I gave up my little 1993 web design company (Hyper,
Ink. was it's name) to help build an ISP, but this book really took me
back. It was like learning HTML (and all that comes with it these
days) all over again, and just as enjoyable as the first time. There
was so much I put into immediate use in a new site I've been building.
Don't be mislead by the cover. The book is about as far from the dry
read of an XHTML spec as you can get. Zeldman's thoroughly engrossing
in his witty, lyrical, easy style. There are thrills the likes of
inline <li>s (further exposition on
A List
Apart). CSS chills abound, as one might well expect in dealing
with IE, Moz, Safari, and Opera: voice-family: "\"}\""; /* trick
WinIE4/5 into thinking the rule is over */. You'll find adventure in
the author's recounting of how things got this messy in the first
place--"The Heartbreak of EMs" alone will leave you cold.
"Designing with Web Standards" is
"The Pragmatic Programmer" for web design--at least from my
humble vi-using, perl-hacking, designer-wanna-be p.o.v.

Macworld Expo Announcements
Macworld Expo Announcements
01/07/2004 07:06 PMA fair number of new Apple products were announced at the
Macworld Expo last night. As
has been
widely rumoured throughout the holiday season, Apple
launched a slimmed down version of the iPod, called the
iPod mini.
The rumours were spot on about the range of colours (mmm, lime green),
smaller capacity (4 Gb), smaller casing (a mere 3.6" x 2" about fag
packet size), though they were wrong about the use of Smart Media (the
iPod mini uses a hard disk), and way off abut the price. This is the
big surprise to me. The announced price is $249 a fair bit more than
the rumoured price of $100.

07/27/2004 09:36 AMMy wife, my kid and I are disappearing in August to a place that has
no Internet, and only a satellite phone. In my absence, Professor Tim
Wu from Virginia will be running Lessig Blog. Tim and I have worked
together on "net neutrality" issues, and if we can steal him from
Virginia, much more in the future.
In addition to Tim, August will also feature two special guests.
During the week of August 9, Congressman Rick
Boucher will guest blog. And
then during the week of August 23, Judge Richard
Posner will
guest blog.
As when John Edwards (

Dennis Kucinich (

guest bloggers, I've advised Congressman Boucher and Judge Posner that
my practice is not to block trolls, but that the practice of bloggers
everywhere is not to feed trolls. I'd be grateful if members of this
community could help keep the conversation constructive.
Thanks to Congressman Boucher and Judge Posner, and to Tim Wu.

Starbucks Non-Announcement Announcements
07/07/2004 12:55 PMA strange little announcement from Starbucks yesterday about its Wi-Fi
service: It's hard to figure why Starbucks was compelled to announce
they'd crossed the magic 3,100 store threshold--why was 3,100 such an
important number? They added stores in five states that apparently had
no or little service before, including Indiana and Wisconsin, which
doesn't seem quite newsworthy either. The release says that service
rolled out in August 2002, when it actually started in May 2001 and
went official later that year. The company has erased the entire May
2001 to August 2002 experience from their minds, despite the several
hundred stores that had access during that time, including the doomed
branch in the World Trade Center at which my friend MIke Daisey was
working that morning and managed to get far away in time. The most
interest part of the Reuters story prompted by a press release was
that subscribers to the service--they don't say how many--use a
T-Mobile hotspot on average after 9 a.m. for an hour eight times a
month. That's great market insight....

Session description: Bloggers and
Journalists -- Border Crossings.
The next BloggerCon is November 6 at Stanford Law School. Late
last week I started working with the discussion leaders, one-to-one,
talking about how BloggerCon sessions work, and to get started on the
session descriptions.
I like to present the sessions one at a time, on the BloggerCon
site, and here on Scripting News. Starting today we'll be introducing
sessions on a fairly regular basis until the grid is filled in, which
will probably be the day before the conference, if memory serves me.

Scott Rosenberg, managing editor of Salon, will lead a
discussion on journalism and blogging. He's an ideal person to lead
this discussion because he's a skilled reporter, and both a journalist
and a blogger. All three BC's have had sessions about journalism. The
first discussion was led by Ed Cone, the second by Jay Rosen, and now
we turn to Scott Rosenberg.

03/14/2005 04:05 PMCommentary: Novell made two major Linux-related announcements at CEBIT
this week. They announced SUSE Professional 9.3, due to be released in
April, and ZENworks 7 for Linux. Unlike many press releases in this
industry, announcing a new customer contract or otherwise allowing
marketing folk to message the masses (forgive me, Baud, for the
babble-speak), these two actually have some weight to them. Novell's
director of marketing for SUSE LINUX, Greg Mancusi-Ungaro, and
ZENworks product management and marketing vice president Alan Murray
combined to brief NewsForge on the news yesterday afternoon, following
the SUSE Professional 9.3 announcement at CEBIT, but ahead of today's
unveiling at CEBIT of the latest version of ZENworks.
