Good site for attractive CSS menus

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

One of the things I love about working with technology is user interface design. Since I am not overly artistic in terms of physical drawing skills, I feel as though CSS is my means of an artistic output in the field I work in. I search the web all the time for handy sites that provide solid resources to users. Recently I came across a site, 13styles, that provides wonderful CSS menus for free (some cost a minimal amount of money). I have used these menus for sites I have had to develop in the past and they are simple in nature and very effective.

The link will also be added to the links page on the site, in case you ever forget it and wish to access it again!

American Idol aiming for cheap laughs?

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

American Idol

I, like most of the rest of the United States, enjoy turning on American Idol during the initial tryouts for the annual singing competition. By now, we all know the first round of the competition allows people to sing in front of the three famous judges with a chance of making it to Hollywood. On that note, this season has seemed a little different to me so far. I feel as though the show is starting to make fools out of people who may or may not have the mental capacity of an average human being. Idol seems to be mocking people who come off as a little slow and are not totally with it. This bothers me…a lot. I think it is in poor taste to put these people on exhibit for the rest of us to hoot and holler at. IMHO, the show is trying to get cheap laughs by using people who do not realize they are being mocked…and that is not right.

“What the F” David Blaine!

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

We all know or have heard of David Blaine, the crazy magician who tries to outdo himself in each and every stunt he performs. A while back my roommate from college came across a hilarious video mocking Blaine on YouTube. It has provided me with many laughs, so I would like to share it with you! Enjoy :)
