Form Design with Sliding Labels « CSSKarma
A few weeks ago I was reading an article on form UI by Luke Wroblewski of Yahoo!. For those who aren’t familiar with Luke, he (quite literally) wrote the book on good form design. In the article, one certain section about placing labels inside of form fields stood out to me: Because labels within fields need to go away when people are entering their answer into an input field, the context for the answer is gone.
Tres sitios para aprender inglés con podcasts
Una de las mayores dificultades con la que se encuentran las personas que aprenden inglés es entender a las personas cuando hablan. El “listening” o comprensión auditiva es una de las áreas que más debes trabajar para conseguir fluidez en tu inglés. La variedad de acentos existentes en inglés: británico, americano, irlandés, australiano o sudafricano añaden más dificultad si cabe. Si te acostumbras a un acento (por ejemplo el británico) suele ser común que luego otro acento (como el sudafricano) te resulte difícil de entender. Pero no te desanimes, una vez que hayas alcanzado un nivel considerable, entender los demás acentos te llevará muy poco tiempo.

The 20 Best Books for Language Lovers
Seeing as how the entirety of organic history exists thanks to communication — even rudimentary chemical exchanges between cells qualify — it makes perfect sense that many find the concept utterly engaging. Language pervades everything, building and destroying as time marches ever forward. And while even the most learned scholars can't even begin to fully explain its physiology, origins, structures and pretty much every other component, they've certainly done a pretty lovely job scratching the surface.
Stupid Windows 7 trick: unlock the secret God Mode folder
So, what exactly is God Mode in Windows 7? Well, for starters, it's not really a mode. And it's nothing you need to be a deity to pull off, either. Rather, it's a folder packed with shortcuts to just about every settings change and administrative function in Windows 7. Everything you'll find in the Action Center, Backup and Restore, Autorun, Desktop Gadgets, Devices and Printers -- it's all there.
CSS Frameworks CSS Reset: Design From Scratch - Smashing Magazine
Advertisement You don’t have to write the same CSS-code or (X)HTML-Markup over and over again. Whatever project you’re starting to work with, at some point you have to define classes and IDs you’ve already defined in your previous web-projects. To avoid unnecessary mistakes you might want to start not from a blank file, but from an almost “perfect” scratch. The latter might contain some basic definitions you’d write in your code anyway. However, once you’ve decided to create such a scratch, you need to make sure it is really bulletproof — besides, if the stylesheet also sets up optimal typographic rules and basic form styling you manage to kill two birds with one stone.

Making TUGZip Shell Extensions Work In Vista x86_64
For those of you that don’t know what TUGZip is, it’s a free archiving utility (think WinZip) developed by Christian Kindahl which is also the developer of my favorite burning software InfraRecorder . And honestly, the only reason why I found out about TUGZip is because of it’s link in the InfraRecorder website. If it wasn’t there I would have never, ever…found out about TUGZip. I’d be stuck using 7-Zip forever, never knowing that a aesthetically pleasing application like TUGZip existed. I mean 7-Zip works fine for me, it’s just that it doesn’t really look 2.0′ish to me if you get my drift. Now, people that use TUGZip in a x86_64 system specifically Vista know that TUGZip’s 32-bit shell extensions do not work in x86_64 versions of Vista, meaning that when you right-click in Windows Explorer, nothing shows up.
