So I got accepted into Yahoo's Search Monkey application platform. I don't really know a whole lot about it yet, but there was a lot of mention about eRDF, RDFa, and microformats in the documentation, since these are the markups which Search Monkey will understand. This got me thinking a bit, since I recently mentioned to my co-workers that we should be implementing microformats. After reading more about RDFa, it seems like microformats are less extensible, but they are already pretty widely supported. I'm not sure about RDFa.

There has been a lot of buzz recently about "CSS Frameworks." What's that you say? What is a "CSS Framework"? It's a fancy word for a base style sheet. But you see, the thing is that by calling something a "Framework," you can immediately pique the interest of any wannabe web developer.

A word of advice: if you are loading dynamic data into a flash movie on a secure page, make sure that the data feed does not use "Pragma:no-cache" or "Cache-control:no-cache" headers - it will break in Internet Explorer.

Thank goodness for google. And lessrain blog.

A few months ago, there was a thread at a forum I moderate about using multiple opacity declarations for elements and their children.
