A Best Site?

This [link] gives me mixed emotions. I worked on the first site listed in the linked from its inception through 2005. And while I haven’t worked on it since December ’05 apparently no one else has either (the graph to the left tails off at November, 2005, the last month …

A New Look

I decided to go ahead with the new theme, based on one of my “Great Swamp” photos. I’m still debugging it in some of the more obscure browsers (I’m looking at you, IE6), so let me know if you see anything especially wrong. Some of the new features are the …

The New transitionworks.org

This morning we launched version 2 of transitionworks.org, the community site for members and participants of TransitionWorks. It’s a radical simplification of the version 1 site, which tried to do more than it really needed to. After giving what users were doing some scrutiny, we honed it down to a …

Teall & Associates

We’re popping champagne corks again here at tom-mcgee.com world headquarters (ouch! watch where you’re pointing that!) as a new site launches for Teall & Associates.

OK, so it doesn’t suck so much. At least it didn’t after I ponied up $29.95 for custom installation and a month’s technical support. There’s nothing worse than having the ISP point their finger at the software vendor, and the software vendor pointing there’s right back at the ISP. What’s …

Checkbox Widget

Here’s a javascript gizmo that makes checkboxes behave like radio buttons. At least, in IE. It’s late, I’ll make it work in Firefox tomorrow…G’night.

CubeCart Sucks

In which the author bitches at length about a sucky product, after spending yet another two hours trying to get it to do something … anything … so I can finish this goddam project and get paid.

Rounded CSS Boxes Made Easy

There are a lot of resources out there for doing this, but most of the ones I tried just gave me a headache. NeuroticWeb has put up a tool that makes it simple. Enter your foreground and background colors, and it not only gives you the correct (and simple!) HTML+CSS, …

My new newsfeed cherrypicks some items from blogs I read as well as news and postings on topics that I find interesting, such as astronomy, the New York Yankees and of course politics.
