Google wants to get every last news junkie hooked to Google News, as evidenced by the services’s news alerts. Limit of 50 per customer. (Google has also added a synonym searching — via Simon)

Another great Gorilla Tip from Mr. D. Keith Robinson on the fallacy that is perfect Web design.

Were I not knee-deep in switching my site’s back-end architecture, I’d be implementing this clever hack: “Comment preview with JavaScript and DOM”

The aforementioned redesign and my resignation toward my Blogger problems have meant longer, and rarer, entries here. My plan is to make this blog more participatory and to have it better reflect the things I’m reading and experimenting with, such as my CSS-based, three- and four-column combos. When that will be…who knows. This fall, I’m hoping.

Tomorrow, at 8 p.m., I’ll be heading to the Web Standards Meetup if only to put some names to faces (e.g., MikeyC) and to promote Webstandards.TO.
