CSS Sprites2 - It's JavaScript Time
A List Apart - Sat, 2008-08-23 07:38
In 2004, Dave Shea took the CSS rollover where it had never gone before. Now he takes it further still—with a little help from jQuery. Say hello to hover animations that respond to a user's behavior in ways standards-based sites never could before.

Mapping Memory: Web Designer as Information Cartographer
A List Apart - Sat, 2008-08-23 07:24
The rise of the social web demands that we rethink our traditional role as builders of digital monuments, and turn our attention to the close observation of the spaces that our users are producing around us. It's time for a new metaphor. Consider cartography.

Married the love of my life
my dandelife (dave) - Tue, 2008-08-12 06:11
All the planning was worth it.
It was a beautiful afternoon, we were surrounded by friends and family, and everyone had a great time.
We've all heard about how a man sees his soon-to-be wife in her wedding dress and can't believe how great she looks... I was wondering if that was true for a long time. I see her every day, I know what she looks like. I've seen her dressed up before too, and yes, she's beautiful.
When she started walking and I saw her... that was it. There was nothing to compare to it...

It took a little while for me to get signed up (I procrastinated), then found out that there were a lot of people who signed up for the same reason... Check out the Bianca Broussard entry on Wikipedia.

Met the love of my life
my dandelife (dave) - Tue, 2008-08-12 06:11
One of her best friends was dating one of my best friends (they're still together, actually), and we met at their apartment.
It made me believe in love at first site... and we're going to be married soon, probably two years to the day we met.

Challenger explosion
my dandelife (dave) - Tue, 2008-08-12 06:11
I was in third grade at Thornton's Ferry Elementary, and we went next door to Mrs. Wilson's room to watch it live on the TV they set up. I don't remember many of the details, but I remember watching the TV and seeing it go up, and up, and up... then something went terribly wrong. The two or three teachers in the room were in too much shock for the first minute to do anything but stare at the TV in disbelief while the group of kids (about 25-30) watched something we didn't really understand.
It was just two weeks before I turned 9.

dropcase.com was reborn
my dandelife (dave) - Tue, 2008-08-12 06:11
I had a site, then took the content off, then didn't put anything new on the front page for almost two whole years.
There's content now, and starting to build up slowly.

Deafness and the User Experience
A List Apart - Fri, 2008-08-08 00:44
Because of limited awareness around Deafness and accessibility in the web community, it seems plausible to many of us that good captioning will fix it all. It won’t. Before we can enhance the user experience for all deaf people, we must understand that the needs of deaf, hard of hearing, and big-D Deaf users are often very different.

Putting Our Hot Heads Together
A List Apart - Fri, 2008-08-08 00:39
The web is a conversation, but not always a productive one. Web discussions too often degenerate into whines, jabs, sour grapes, and one-upmanship. How can we transform discussion forums and comment sections from shooting ranges into arenas of collaboration?
