    Helping me brush up my entrenched Web 1.0 JavaScript skills.

  2. André Carrilho

    Some fab distorted caricatures here. (But what is it with illustrators’ websites and endless Flash and pop-up windows? Hello, it’s the 21st century, please keep up.) (via Drawn!)

  3. Kyle Reed Illustration | 905.297.9454

    Some of these collage illustrations are great, although I wish he’d use a few more of the original photos’ features rather than, say, making eyes out of black and white paper. (via Drawn!)

  4. Hotel • Home

    I love the design of this site’s pages (designed by Paul Hetherington built by Dorian Moore). I’m not sure if I love it in spite,or because of it looking more like a paper brochure than a website.

  5. Web-based job tracking, invoicing, reporting & project management software for the part-time independent contractor. - Side Job Track

    Haven’t tried it, but looks good. Not sure why it’s only for “part-time” contractors.

  6. Lily Allen

    Catchy, wonderful tunes. But can I buy them or legally download them? No. Chance of me being sick of them before I can pay for them? High. How silly is the music industry? Very.

  7. Haddock Directory

    If you were thinking I’ve been keeping the site unusuallly up-to-date over recent weeks, it’s because an anonymous and glamorous assistant has taken over the task for me. Thank you, glamorous assistant!

    With a comment from me and, more usefully, my sister. (via ChrisDodo)

  13. Posterity

    Weirdly impenetrable and opaque pay-for site at which you can write your autobiography. As if weblogs never happened.

  14. SortedTable example

    Dynamically sorted and rearranged HTML tables using Javascript.

  15. pair Networks - World Class Web Hosting - System Notices

    Can’t be bothered with the RSS feed any more, but might need to remember where this is sometime.

  16. Mysql automatic backup script - AutoMySQLBackup

    Looks very handy, and better than my too ad hoc approach.

  17. SourceForge.net: Smarty Gettext

    This *seems* like the best of many cobbled-together ways to do language localisation with PHP and Smarty, but I haven’t tried it yet. Any other suggestions…?

  18. Luke Melia » Installing subversion at pair

    Maybe I should finally do this. Before I regret not doing it.

    Scroll down to various arty types talking about how they get inspired. (via City of Sound)

  20. John Lewis Partnership - First Openings for Waitrose in Scotland

    Our local Somerfield (ex-Morrisons, ex-Safeway) is to change again, in June, into a Waitrose. Much rejoicing among Barbican residents who have clamoured for more middle-class groceries for an amusingly long time.

  21. BBC News | Entertainment | Cult poet Ivor Cutler dies at 83

    I missed this earlier in the week. I’m glad we went to see him a couple of years back, although I feared I wouldn’t see him again. Bye bye Ivor.

    I’m a sucker for lists of start-up rules like this that I’ll probably never need. (via Boing Boing)

  25. “No input file specified” | jenseng.com

    How to generate 404s when using PHP as a CGI binary. Bodgy, but better than the default.

  26. Peter Maurer - Witch

    Application switcher for Mac that lets you switch between windows, not just applications. Very handy for those of us trying to avoid the mouse. Oodles of options.

  27. Soundstream

    If I used a screensaver… Reacts to sounds it hears through your Mac’s microphone. Only appeared on my PowerBook’s screen, not the external monitor, but still nice.

  28. 3000 miles from home | aram kudurshian’s web site | high priority

    Mac OS X toolbar to-do list manager. For me to remember if I start using iCal’s to do list. (via plasticbag.org)

  29. BBC - Radio 3 - Mixing It - P J Harvey

    I always forget to listen to Mixing It, but last night I stumbled on this long PJ Harvey session. Yum. Listen Again from /radio3/mixingit/ for the next week.

  30. BBC - Radio 1 - Zane Lowe - Tracklisting - Thursday 16 February 2006

    Fantastic 90 minutes of break-up songs. Be a maudlin teenager all over again. 30 mins into the show, if you can find the Listen Again link. And if you can put up with the appalling Zane Lowe.
