Moof →
I posted this link not for the app (I don’t know how Moof is yet) but to notice you about a really nice (for me) kind of usage of form!
On the bottom of the page you can see the form to sign up, I think it’s a great example of how a sign up form can be creative and elegant!
I have just a doubt … everyone will understand that it’s a form to sign up? I did … but the...

InfoQ: Parties Fail to Agree on the HTML 5 Video... →
There are two standard that can become the future ‘default’ format for <video> in html5, the first if H.264 (it’s quite famous), the second is Ogg_Theora (less famous but free).
By user I would prefer H.264 but as developer I prefer Ogg Theora, the problem with H.264 is that you have to pay royalty (for commercial use).
Do you want that the standard de-facto will become...

An example of word-wrap: break-word →
Recently Firefox 3.5 was released, this update brings some important update about html5 and css3 support to the browser. One of my favourite is word-wrap in css3. It solves a really annoying issue when a text in a div is too long (without spaces in it).
Let’s see how it works in this link :)
htop →
