This guy doesn’t use any CSS classes or IDs for styling. Some pretty amazing stuff contained in his code (which he has made fully accessible to the public with links in the footer.)

I love the Panic blog, but currently, there’s a bug with the latest version of Safari that makes transformed (rotated/skewed) text blurry (it’s fixed in the WebKit nightly.) I made a quick user stylesheet that removes the rotation that Panic uses when you hover over a post. If you’d like, you can download it here.

My Verizon contract will expire in May, but they are offering an early upgrade if I choose to stay with them.  I’m torn, however, on whether to stay with Verizon or switch to another carrier.  Reception and call quality have been second to none on Big Red’s network, but the contracts are just too dang expensive.  I’ve been itching to switch carriers for awhile now but I don’t want to wait until May for my contract to expire.

Another issue is which phone to buy.  If I stay with Verizon, my options are Motorola DROID or Palm Pre Plus, if I choose Sprint the options are HTC Hero or Palm Pre, and if I go the the T-Mobile route the only real choice is the Nexus One.  As bad as I want an iPhone, AT&T isn’t really an option because there is no 3G coverage in my area.  I’ve wanted a Pre for a long time time, but the App Catalog just hasn’t matured as quickly as I would have liked.  The alternative is an Android phone, which seems to be maturing quickly with support of the app creating powerhouse Google.
