Just stumbled on a link of a link and found that there is too a “web developer toolbar” for IE. Although (currently) unrated, it seems to provide some useful functionality:
- Explore and modify the document object model (DOM) of a web page.
- Locate and select specific elements on a web page through a variety of techniques.
- Selectively disable Internet Explorer settings.
- View HTML object class names, ID’s, and details such as link paths, tab index values, and access keys.
- Outline tables, table cells, images, or selected tags.
- Validate HTML, CSS, WAI, and RSS web feed links.
- Display image dimensions, file sizes, path information, and alternate (ALT) text.
- Immediately resize the browser window to 800×600 or a custom size.
- Selectively clear the browser cache and saved cookies. Choose from all objects or those associated with a given domain.
- Choose direct links to W3C specification references, the Internet Explorer team weblog (blog), and other resources.
- Display a fully featured design ruler to help accurately align objects on your pages.
But, don’t go and downloading all at once… after all it is still in beta—”Beta 2″ to be exact.

Six Apart, Adobe and Style Master sponsors The Style Contest. So what is it exactly about? Well, plain and simple–because “Design matters.”
Designers are the unsung heroes of the blogosphere. Their work allows users to express a character, theme and personality with their blogs.
The Style Contest was created to enable the design community to indulge and explore the contribution their expertise makes to the quality of blogging tools and the user experience.
The contest sponsors share this sentiment, and have reflected their commitment in the prize pool valued at over $17,000.
Designers—this contest is for you. To thank you. To recognize you. To reward you.
But alas, it is mostly for MT, TypePad and LiveJournal users (or those with experience with the three I’m guessing). To get more info about the what-when-where-who-how, you can check out the contest rules over here. So get those chicken-scratch going and pencils sharpened up, the deadline has been set for 15 May, 2006, 10:00 pm PST.
For those participating in CSS Reboot on May 1st, you might as well jump in as the contest is said to have a total sum of $17,000. Not to mention, every contestant wins!

Today, April 11th 2006, I have officially spent a year in the Bay Area. It has been a great learning experience, and still is. There is still a lot to learn, see and shoot. I haven’t gone home to LA since New Year’s. Everything seemed to be taken up a notch when 2006 hit.
For example, I still have to process some photos from MA’s Holiday Cruise, my family’s Christmas Dinner, TheCrew’s Tahoe Trip and other functions. My room, which was trying to keep the “minimal” look, just got dumped on by “stuff”. But alas, I made a promise to get rid/sell things for Spring Cleaning.
Anyways, besides the old news, I’d like to just greet my grandma a Happy Birthday!

Just got an announcement from YPN that they have launched the Yahoo! Publisher Network Blog.
This blog is intended to be the Yahoo! Publisher Network resource for publishers, by publishers. In it, you’ll find not only what you might expect from a product-focused industry blog–the latest on issues, new releases, and tips–but also in-depth how-to’s, publisher interviews, industry trends, links to articles and other news and information you can use. You will also, we think, find a community that will help you to learn how to be a more successful and profitable publisher.
With certain page elements like a callout and a “Zeitgeist”, it seems apparent that they’re promoting their new babies: del.icio.us and Flickr. Not to mention, a quick CTRL+U (or CTRL+SHIFT+U) exposes:
<meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.0.2" /><!-- leave this for stats -->
I guess Matt Mullenweg and team would be happy with that.
