Been so busy leaving Vassar and getting ready to join Typekit, I nearly missed these bits of news, wisdom, and curiosity.
Andy Clarke and Carsonified are organizing a $150 online conference about CSS3. Speakers include Ethan Marcotte, Matthew Smith (of Squared Eye), Sean Gaffney, Andy himself, and Jina Bolton. Sounds fantastic.
Mandy Brown of A Working Library is now a contributing editor for A List Apart. I have worked a bit with folks at ALA and with Mandy, and this is a great match. Congratulations, all, and here’s to continued success at ALA!
Jeffrey Zeldman has written several posts about the forthcoming obsolescence of Flash as we have known it. This recent tweet of his sums things up nicely:
“HTML5 vs. Flash” is the wrong discussion. “Accessible rich media” is the right one.
… but he is equally articulate and fundamentally sound in his two blog posts, Flash, iPad, Standards and Ahem.
And finally, thanks to Dribbble I’m privy to a bit of what Shaun Inman is cooking up, but this recent tweet of his is even more exciting to me than the thing he’s making! Related: advice from Jason Fried about selling your by-products. (I really hope Shaun sells his by-products.)
