		<description><![CDATA[Very soon now, the project that has consumed my days for the last 6 months will go into public beta.  It's too early to pop the champagne, and that's not what this post is about.  However, the newness of this project is worth pointing out for the following reason: We're <em>already</em> planning a fairly major refactoring effort to take care of a lot of code rot that has crept into the designs.



That's right.  We haven't released anything, and there's already enough bloat to justify spending at least 2 weeks cleaning it up. <small><a href="http://foohack.com/2008/01/going-fast-frankenstein-and-refactoring/" class="internal">...Read More</a></small>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Inline-block layout solves a lot of problems.  It lets you do some cool stuff previously thought impossible with CSS.  It makes vertical alignment work properly.  And sadly, it's supported pretty badly.  I learned a new approach from <a href="http://blog.hedgerwow.com/" class="external">one of the best insane inventor webdevs I know</a>.  The pieces have been <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=display%3A-moz-inline-stack%3B+display%3Ainline%3B+display%3Ainline-block%3B+zoom%3A1%3B" class="external">out there for some time</a>, it seems, but I hadn't ever seen this spelled out as simply and elegantly as he did it. <small><a href="http://foohack.com/2007/11/cross-browser-support-for-inline-block-styling/" class="internal">...Read More</a></small>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some 50 years before the Internet was even a spark in TBL's eye, Ayn Rand managed to capture the timeless essence of a web developer in the character of Howard Roark.  Every web developer needs to read this book. <small><a href="http://foohack.com/2007/10/required-reading-for-web-developers-the-fountainhead-by-ayn-rand/" class="internal">...Read More</a></small>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Labor Day came and I completely forgot that it would mean no Monday morning for writing a post.  Hope you all had great beer and burgers, or whatever you were doing.

In the meantime, I&#8217;d like to mention something cool.  Julien LeComte has released his YUI Compressor that includes a CSS minification script that <small><a href="http://foohack.com/2007/09/squish-it-good-code-compression-for-the-masses/" class="internal">...Read More</a></small>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I compare <a href="http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/grids/" class="external">YUI's Grids CSS</a> with <a href="http://bjorkoy.com/blueprint/" class="external">Blueprint</a>.  Blueprint is interesting, but has some pretty major problems as a CSS framework, and I certainly wouldn't recommend using it on a production site. YUI Grids, on the other hand, is indispensable. <small><a href="http://foohack.com/2007/08/blueprint-css-framework-vs-yui-grids/" class="internal">...Read More</a></small>]]></description>
