Web Dev, Linux, WordPress & More
sewmyheadon.com will strip down and get naked on April 9th in support of CSS Naked Day.
Dustin Diaz created this ‘holiday’ to promote Web Standards by stripping away the presentational (CSS) elements on a site to show semantic markup and good structure.
If you’re running WordPress, you automate your site’s undressing using the CSS Naked Day Plugin by Aja Lapus.
I’ve got a little toning up to do beforehand - off to my workout. 
Dan Cederholm’s book Bulletproof Web Design 2nd Edition is now available.
I scarfed this book like carrot cake and highly recommend it to anyone interested in Web Standards and creating flexible, usable sites using semantic markup and CSS.
Oh, and if you build websites and aren’t interested in CSS and Web Standards, kiss your sweet job goodbye. Still can’t believe y’all are out there, but I’ve seen your work.
This cool post on Design Vitality lists a bunch of sites and tools for website designers including:
Colorjack is a cool open source color picker DHTML tool that allows you to add a color picker to your web project.
Another related plugin (seemingly still under development) is Sphere, which is a color picker based on a color wheel.
