This is not a mundane detail, Michael.

IE 8 Beta

IE 8 beta is out. Looks like they’re making great strides to improve their support for standards. I love that you can install the beta with out the need to uninstall it when it breaks sites. I’m hoping they keep the Emulate IE7 button for the final release. Or somehow tuck it away in a menu so the option is still there. An amazing feature for web developers would be an additional Emulate IE6 feature. Testing sites in Internet Explorer would be a breeze if that was the case. I haven’t played with the developer tools much, but I like how much easier they’re making JS debugging for IE. Here’s a post from the IE Blog about the new developer tools

In and out all day

Like any mature individual my age, I find ‘that’s what she said’ references to be the funniest joke possible.

I recently helped my friend Devlin setup a new blog. I’m trying to get all my friends into blogging or having their own site. I feel it’s good to get the conversion out of the closed world of facebook/myspace.

She picked a rad domain name for her blog: http://waityouremrodonnellsdaughter.com/. Devlin told me a story a few weeks ago involving someone ~~defacing~~ creating a work of art on her whiteboard. ‘Not amused’ is what she said in response. Devlin just wrote a followup after she caught the culprit in another act of defacement.

Green Collar Jobs

Tonight’s democratic debate has been my least favorite of them all. They’re actually getting into some details now, but the back and forth on health care in the beginning was awful. I do love how hard the moderators are having to work to get the candidates to switch topics.
