• 11.7.07 Safari (my new crush) posted in Web Design, Geekery

  Besides being enamored with all things Leopard, I’ve developed an intense and burning love for Safari. With a couple of exceptional plugins, it’s become my general web browser of choice. The powerhouse that is Firefox+addons may still be hard to leave behind for webdev, but for beauty, ease of use and overall integration (and awesome applescripting), Safari is definitely my new top choice…

• 11.1.07 Man Alive posted in Geekery

  I just discovered Bwana while looking for something completely different. It can open and format man pages right in your web browser. I’ve found other utilities that beat paging in Terminal, but this is really nice. I’ve tried it in Firefox (man [manpage]) and in Safari (man://[manpage]) and it works great. If you’re feeling geeky or just wondering what the geek next to you is talking about, check it out. There’s nothing like a good, old-fashioned man page to put some hair on your chest.

• 5.28.07 Ajax Usability: Tab History posted in Web Design

  Today’s tip gleaned from my experience in building the latest Circle Six Design website is more of a hint, or suggestion, than a how-to. It’s mostly about javascript, and my javascript is pretty crazy for this, mostly because I’m not very experienced with javascript and it’s kind of hacked. However, what I got working is worth sharing…

• 1.20.07 Circle Six on Internet Apps posted in Geekery

  As part of our ongoing series, here’s another relatively short list of our favorite OS X applications: Internet Edition. Sorry for any overlap, but I figured it would help to keep things organized by subject, and some of these apps just fit under multiple categories or, like Firefox, get special attention. Browser: Firefox/BonEcho I just wrote […]

• 1.19.07 Circle Six on Firefox posted in Geekery

  The next post in this series will be about Internet applications for OS X, but first I wanted to focus on web browsing, and I have to admit that I’m very partial to Firefox. There are a few people that I highly respect that put their money on Safari and some of the […]

• 1.13.07 Until We Run Out Of Ink posted in Website Updates

  Amidst preparations for our planned expansion, client jobs and work on my next article, I realized that I had sorely neglected the print style sheets for the Circle Six Blog. So now if you decide to read any of the tutorials on this blog offline (heaven forbid you should waste the paper), you […]

• 1.9.07 Better CSS Debugging with OSX posted in Web Design

  CSS has never been the easiest part of web design. Browser inconsistencies, holes in the specs and some things that we just haven’t figured out how to do can leave a designer a little frustrated (and thinking about slicing up an image in Fireworks and building on of those table things). But […]

• 1.1.07 Blog Theme Revision posted in Website Updates

  I’ve revised the Microphone theme to handle multiple resolutions. It needs some tweaking and I haven’t tested in Explorer yet. I kind of rushed development on it and may have made it live prematurely. Please let me know if you run into any major problems. The goal was to make […]

• 12.27.06 Strange Safari CSS Bug posted in Web Design

  I need some help tracking this one down. I’m told by several people that this current theme doesn’t render in Sarari 2.0.4, especially on smaller powerbooks. No one has been able to send me a screen shot yet. I have equally as many reports stating that it works fine in the […]

• 12.25.06 Wordpress Theme Development Workflow for OSX posted in Web Design

  Having spit out several Wordpress custom sites in the last few days, I thought I’d detail my current workflow on my Macintosh OSX platform for posterity. It’s changed a little since the last time I wrote about it, and I feel like it’s at a point where, with some minor tweaking and a […]
