Read the previous post for better insight. I will not make you wait so check out the latest update.

Now I am excited
I am a dork for getting so excited after reading a short blog post from David Baron. A bunch of nice selectors have been landed in the branch of Mozilla. They are :nth-child(), :nth-last-child(), :nth-of-type(), :nth-last-of-type() :first-of-type, :last-of-type, and :only-of-type.

When I look into your eyes
I keep thinking about where I want to go next with this website. It will continue to be experimental and the content will be similar. But other than those two I am open to a new direction.
But I just keep coming back to one single idea. It is centered around what the user is looking […] -
delete_post and deleted_post
A little note for myself and anyone else. I have not tested this yet but hopefully I will soon.
From my snooping, Wordpress 2.2.x has a new hook and has changed a hook. Before 2.2, the delete_post hook was called after the post was deleted. With 2.2, delete_post hook is call before the post is […] -

I was recently asked by a friend for information about how to have a random background image. Well not completely random, the background image should be from a set of images. My idea: add a class, randomly from a set, to the body (or another element) with Javascript. I could just change the style […]
