Mac OS X Browsers Benchmarked

http://macintalk.com/2007/03/31/mac-os-x-browsers-benchmarked/
"Mac users have more browsers to choose from then any other platform. The question is, which one delivers the most performance? Last year we tested four of the most popular browsers and found that OmniWeb (which uses a tweaked version of Apple’s WebCore engine) and the WebKit nightly build more or less tied on the test suite."

10 Lessons Frank Miller’s 300 can teach you about Successful Online Business

http://www.fuzzyfuture.com/general/10-lessons-frank-millers-300-can-teach-you-about-successful-online-business/
"It’s 3:00 am and I just finished watching 300 for the second time (this time in IMAX). I sit here struck by a moment of clarity. Frank Miller must be an online entrepreneur in his spare time because 300 is the perfect metaphor for online business. Now I know what you’re thinking, this guy has completely lost it, and to be honest, that might be not far from the truth "

nikon: universpace (All the glory of the universe, in a single Flash app)

http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-9703575-1.html
http://www.nikon.co.jp/main/eng/feelnikon/discovery/universcale/index_f.htm
"Every few months, I come across something on the web that completely blows my mind. This morning, a friend of mine sent me a link to Nikon's Universcale web app. It puts the entire universe into proportion, from the smallest particle to the largest measurements of space.

From the femtometer to the light year, Universcale spans 40 magnitudes of measurement into a single cosmic web app. It's really amazing when you zoom all the way out into stars and galaxies and realize that every time you go a magnitude higher, everything you saw before, from the flea to Mount Everest, is contained in this tiny little grid in the lower-left side of the screen. Of course, the Carl Sagan-should-be-narrating-this planetarium music helps."

copyblogger: Zen and the Art of Remarkable Blogging

http://www.copyblogger.com/zen-and-the-art-of-remarkable-blogging/
"The 1974 bestseller Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance begins with the following disclaimer from author Robert Pirsig:

“[This book] should in no way be associated with that great body of factual information relating to orthodox Zen Buddhist practice. It’s not very factual on motorcycles, either.”

Likewise, this article isn’t going to teach you much of anything about Zen Buddhism, and absolutely zero about motorcycles. But I hope it does provide some insight into effective blogging, or, at a minimum, gets you to think differently about your current notions regarding content and the attention you seek with it."

Zoom In: Adobe Photoshop CS3: Top 5 Standout New Features

http://www.zoom-in.com/blog/2007/03/first_impressions_top_5_stando.php
"Upon first digging into Adobe Photoshop CS3, a few features have really popped out at me as incredibly useful. I would like to offer a brief overview of some of these new ways of attacking your creative challenges using the latest version of Adobe's flagship app. PsCS3 will run you about $649 to buy it outright if you do not own any previous versions. If you own Photoshop 7, CS, or CS2, you are eligible for upgrade pricing - looks like $199 for the upgrade. Check Adobe's store on their website for more info. For more information about what comes in the different versions of CS3, and what your suite configuration options are, see my previous post."

AWESOME designed box of tea

http://www.arghyle.com/2007/03/26/great-design-ineeka-tea/
"I was at Whole Foods yesterday doing some tea shopping (really… I ran out) and noticed a few kinds from Ineeka. This is not a company I had tried before (I generally drink Ito En) but the packaging was so cool I could not resist. I ended up with the Darjeeling, but there were a few other options available.

While the tea is good, I have to admit I was more impressed with the product design. The tea is not loose, rather it comes in 14 single-serving packages. Nothing too unique, until you check out the bags…"

Pixelbreaker: Blog and Flash work

http://blog.pixelbreaker.com/
AWESOME Flash/design work/blog, in particular, the new "Polar Clock Screensaver" is fantastic.
"

These days, I’m predominantly an ActionScript developer, but I also work in JavaScript / AJAX, PHP and am tinkering with Ruby and other technologies in an effort to keep atop new technologies.

I recently left de-construct after being head of the Flash development team there for three years. Prior to that I was at Tonic for a couple of years, again as a Flash developer. My career in web started way back in 1997 at deepend design, where I was a Web developer for 3 years, and worked on very early dHTML sites and also worked with Perl/PHP etc.

I am now freelancing and working on a broad range of flash projects, I’ve worked on fully-fledged applications, games, microsites, and global multi-lingual brand and campaign sites.

My personal projects at present include porting my existing libraries to the new ActionScript 3.0 model, and a lightweight, but very detailed debugging tool for AS3 applications."
