Testing out creating a post from my Android phone. Android is so cool!

Yesterday was CSS Naked Day. CSS Naked Day was thought up by Dustin Diaz. The purpose of CSS Naked Day is to to promote Web Standards; including proper use of XHTML, semantic markup, and a good hierarchy structure. In other words it disables your CSS for for a 24 hour period in order to promote web standards.

I forgot that yesterday was CSS Naked Day. So when I went to my site, I was pissed that my site was jacked up. My first thought was that my site was hacked. The styling was gone but all of the content was there. Which didn’t make sense why a hacker would do that. That I realized what happened.

That was my first CSS Naked Day that I participated in. It was pretty cool. Click on the image to see a screenshot of my site during CSS Naked Day. Also, a “thank you” goes to Aja Lupas for creating the Wordpress CSS Naked Day plugin that I used.

I guess I never noticed it, but I have a lot of menu icons! In order from left to right is:

Caffeine
MobileMe Sync
Time Machine
Bluetooth
Wireless
Audio/Volume
Time
Spotlight

Check out a screenshot of all of them on my desktop:

After almost a month without a laptop, I finally got one again. You’d be surprised how much wish you had a laptop when don’t have one. It is a 15″ Macbook Pro. 2.66 GHz processor. 4Gb RAM.

Now I get to go through and install all of the software and set up all of my preferences.

My home command center is almost complete!

I have some kind of obsession with Darth Vader. I don’t even like the Star Wars movies, but I really like Darth Vader. At work, they changed my name of my phone to say ‘Darth Vader’. So when I call someone, their phone says like Darth Vader is calling them. How cool is that!

Not sure how it happened but Google thinks I am a bot. I typed in the CAPTCHA and I haven’t seen the message since. The only thing I can think of was our network was having problems connecting at the beginning of the day. Maybe something got thrown out of whack at the same time I went to Google?
