Silverback App Landing Page (February 16, 08)
Andy teases us with Clearleft’s upcoming app. My (pretty standard) guess is it will revolve around user testing. The best bit though? Resize your browser window and gawp at the 3 overlapping levels of jungle vines. Beautifully executed. The font’s Rockwell MT Bold by the way.
iConcertCal (February 7, 08)
A great iTunes plugin that shows upcoming gigs in your area based on your music library. Now, who’s up for seeing Elbow in April? (Hat tip: Keegan)
FancyZoom 1.0 (February 7, 08)
Cabel releases his script for smooth JavaScript image zooming. Very nicely done. Bonus tip for Mac users: try holding shift whilst clicking on an image.
Fake Steve on the Microsoft/Yahoo! Merger (February 5, 08)
The Borg-Yahoo merger won’t work. Here’s why. It’s like taking the two guys who finished second and third in a 100-yard dash and tying their legs together and asking for a rematch, believing that now they’ll run faster.
SimpleBits Realign (January 31, 08)
Dan bangs out another beautiful realign. Love the grid. Love the little details. Wide is definitely the new drop shadow.
Subtraction Revs up for EE (January 31, 08)
Khoi sees the light! It’s great to see the spread of EE really picking up speed since 1.6. If you’re still not convinced, just wait for 2.0!
Johnny Chung Lee Wiimote Projects (January 25, 08)
Johnny has managed to do some ridiculously cool stuff with his Wiimote and infrared sensor bar. All three projects look like they could really catch on with game and application developers, especially the Head Tracking.
ALA #251: Version Targeting (January 22, 08)
Aaron introduces us to browser ‘version targeting’ and Eric shares his thoughts. I think I’ll hold judgement for the time being, but this is certainly an important read for people who make websites.
