• 1.22.08 Multi-bookmarks in Flock (or Firefox) posted in Geekery

  I’ve switched to Flock as my primary browser. Yes, I still load Safari when I miss the speed and beauty, but there are a few plugins I’ve come to depend on that happen to be compatible with Flock. Like Zotero, for example. It’s amazingly well developed for a beta. And having all of my TUAW compatriots displayed in a twitter sidebar prevents me from getting the overload that comes every time I load Twitterific. But I’ve had to find solutions for a couple of issues, one of which I thought I’d share. Safari allows you to set “auto-click” on folders of bookmarks, so that when you click the folder in your toolbar, it loads all of the contained items in tabs. I wanted similar functionality in Flock/Firefox…

• 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.

  It’s been a little while since we’ve heard from them, but CulturedCode has released a new version of XyleScope and has plans to release a GTD-based ToDo manager called “Things”…

• 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…

• 3.11.07 VIRB Customization Tips posted in Web Design

  I thought I’d jot down a few notes on my experiences with customizing VIRB pages for those with enough skill to pull it off on their own. This is NOT a CSS primer, I’m just some workflow tips I’ve picked up on the way. It’s all fairly obvious, but I thought it might help some aspiring designers who might be doing things the hard way. I just finished redesigning my own page after a sleepless night…

• 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 […]

• 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 […]
