Guardian Online: "The distractions of constant emails, text and phone messages are a greater threat to IQ and concentration than taking cannabis."
CSS From the Ground Up: "Tutorials that assumes no knowledge of Cascading Style Sheets whatsoever. If you are a bit nervous of dabbling in things that you don't understand, this is definitely for you!"

Mike Davidson: "Just because you can validate your code doesn't mean you are better than anybody else. Heck, it doesn't even necessarily mean you write better code than anybody else. Someone who can write a banking application entirely in Flash is a better coder than you. Someone who can integrate third-party code into a complicated publishing environment is a better coder than you. Think of validation as using picture perfect grammar; it helps you get your ideas across and is a sign of a good education, but it isn't nearly as important as the ideas and concepts you think of and subsequently communicate."

Technology Review: "Does Google's plan to digitize millions of print books spell the death of libraries-or their rebirth?"

Social Bookmarking Tools (I): A General Review: "We are here going to remind you of hyperlinks in all their glory, sell you on the idea of bookmarking hyperlinks, point you at other folks who are doing the same, and tell you why this is a good thing. Just as long as those hyperlinks (or let's call them plain old links) are managed, tagged, commented upon, and published onto the Web, they represent a user's own personal library placed on public record, which - when aggregated with other personal libraries - allows for rich, social networking opportunities."

Dan Saffer: "In analytical thinking, emotion is seen as an impediment to logic and making the right choices. In design, decisions without an emotional component are lifeless and do not connect with people."

The future of blogging: "What is clear is that opportunities for blogging abound. Companies can use bloggers to put a more human face on interactions with employees and customers; marketers can create buzz through blogs; and bloggers can act as fact checkers for the mainstream media."

Ergonomics Today: "According to the software's maker, IBM, Home Page Reader brings the Internet to users who are blind or have low vision. Using an IBM text-to-speech synthesizer, Home Page Reader speaks Web-based information aloud in a clear and effective manner as it is presented on the computer screen. Users hear everything from a description of graphics, to forms, frames and tables. Text and links are read by different voices - a male voice speaks plain text while a female voice speaks links (Users can customize these and other speech and text settings according to preference). Special navigation features provide additional help in understanding complex tables and data input fields, and a simple search function provides the capability to look for descriptive text on a page or the entire Web."

TheFeature: "As mobile phones become more capable, people are using them to store an increasingly wider variety and greater quantity of data. This raises a new problem for designers of handset user interfaces: how do you let owners find what they're looking for in a coherent and friendly manner?"
Betterhumans: "A new computer built with biological parts can process up to a billion programs simultaneously without human assistance."
