The title says it all: a new company, Newnham Research, is trying to make it easier for consumers to add extra monitors to your system. I assume that the video performance won’t be gamer-worthy over USB, but could be great for more static work like graphic design or spreadsheets.
You may have noticed that the content of this blog has gotten somewhat scattered. I think that reflects my often scattered-brained state of mind, so it is a case of art reflecting life. In other words, live with it, I do.
So, true-to-form here is another departure for this blog: plugging semi-amateur dance shows: This is good old-fashioned wholesome family entertainment that we’re talking about. If you’re going to be in Decatur, GA on April 22 or 23 then you owe it to yourself to check out the 6th Annual Swinging Night of Tap!
My friend Birda Ringstad puts together this annual dance fest to give some of her students a chance to show off for an audience of friends and family. Smiles are guaranteed for all!
Found this on Digg - simply genius!

Another approach to CSS rounded corners. This uses the round text character, bullet, to make the corners. No javascript, no images, just the text character and css.
It doesn’t really have anything to do with the rest of this site, but I wanted to experiment with a CSS technique that is very popular with a lot of web designers. Rounded corners work well with many web layouts, but most conventional approaches to making them require making custom images which can be tricky if you don’t have the right software, and requires new images every time you change the color scheme. I’ve seen other methods with heavy use of javascript, but that excludes some site visitors. There are also ones that use many extra DIVs to artificailly create the round corners, but they can be cumbersome to edit.
My experiment uses a text character, the bullet, •, instead of an image to put something round in the corner. If this interests you check out the rounded corner article I posted. Also check out Eric Meyer’s web site for all things CSS, and the CSS Zen Garden for stunning CSS designs.
