Where Am I?

You may have noticed that I haven’t posted anything for the last two days. The reason is quite simple. I’ve been almost done with a new site design and I’ve been putting (more than) my available time into fixing that “one last thing” for the last two days. What is it that they say about development projects? The first 80% of the project takes 80% of the estimated time, and the last 20% takes the another 80% of the estimated time. Well I’ve been in that last 20% for a while now.
There is one thing I’ve learned from all this. Internet Explorer is complete garbage. Even the latest versions don’t fully support web standards such as CSS and they’re buggy about what they do support.
If you‘re using Internet Explorer, do everyone a favor and get a different web browser. Anything other than IE is an improvement. Not only will web designers everywhere thank you, you will also substantially improve the security of your machine. Firefox is currently a favorite on most platforms. Mac users also have even more choices than Windows users, with Safari and OmniWeb (my personal choice) in addition to Firefox.
Posting will resume Real Soon Now.
