  • Flipity flop - mmm.phpied.com

    Posted on Thursday November 19th, 2009 at 22:47 in css, fun, wordpress, flip, mmm

    Randomly browsing something on the iPhone it occurred to me that people could prefix their mobile sites with "mmm" instead of "m" or "i", as in mmm.mysite.tld. It's longer, true, but I don't think it will take longer to type three m's instead of one....

    It's this time of the year again - the Packt open source CMS awards. Yours truly has been in the jury in the past two years in the "PHP CMS" category, this time I was selected to judge in the "Other" category. So I had the pleasure of reviewing 5 non...

  • Gzip your @font-face files

    Posted on Saturday October 10th, 2009 at 14:14 in css, performance, font, gzip, font-face

    Adding custom fancy fonts to a web page seems to be all the rage these days. Looking at some examples with Net panel on, I saw some of those font files are 100K which is a pretty big price to pay for an ornament like this. I mean you can build whole ...

  • CSS munging - a FAILed experiment

    Posted on Saturday October 3rd, 2009 at 12:03 in css, performance, js, minification

    Not sure if I've ever put that in writing, but CSS irks me with its verboseness. I mean things like: background-position, padding-bottom, text-decoration... those are long property names, repeatedly used in stylesheets. And there's pretty much nothin...
