  • JavaScript Rock Star – Guitar Hero meets YouTube – John Resig, the javascript genius behind the jQuery library (who also amazingly ported Processing to javascript recently) has made this (quite silly) button mashing game which challenges you to play along with a video of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit by pressing the A,S,D,F & G keys on your keyboard in time.

  • dpwolf.muxtape.com – I've been playing with muxtape today. The site allows you to upload and share a mix of mp3s. It's a bit flaky but it's a great idea with a very simple design. This is part of a mix I put together for a dj set a few weeks ago. It starts with The Velvet Underground and ends with Kanye West. Enjoy!
  • Dead Programmer Society: I Would Rather Be A Jazz Programmer – A play on the idea of the 'rockstar programmer' used in many employment listings at startup web companies. (via htxt.org)

  • : StevenClark.com.au – Just added this web developer's blog to my RSS reader. Some good reference material on design, semantic and standards based web practices.
  • WordPress Themes and the functions.php file : i.Farang – A good introduction to the use of the functions.php file in WordPress themes. Adding code here can give your theme unique, additional functionality like an integrated plugin. It also provides a means for giving users the ability to customise the look of the theme via the admin menu by selecting colours etc.

  • Adobe – Developer Center : Wireframing with Fireworks CS3 – I've been a big fan of Fireworks for ages and have used it in the design process of several websites but somehow missed the fact that it had a library of standard interface widgets built in, designed for wireframing sites and applications. Very handy. They're all 9 sliced so they scale nicely.

  • WP CODA – A WordPress theme which uses jQuery to allow the user to browse through individual pages/tabs with an sliding animation. It looks all cool and flash like, but it removes the ability to permalink to a particular page. Still, could be a useful technique for the right kind of site.
  • FriendFeed – FriendFeed aggregates all of your activity from sites like Flickr, Twitter, Delicious, Last.fm, YouTube and Vimeo into one place. It also provides an RSS feed with this combined content and a widget for embedding on any webpage. It also has an API for developer use which can return data in XML or JSON, nice.

  • YouTube – Let’s Paint,Exercise,& Blend Drinks TV! – Stewart Butterfield shared this with me during our ‘mentoring’ session at X|Media|Lab over the weekend. It features a man in a suit running on a jogging machine whilst taking live talkback callers, painting and mixing drinks. Genius!
  • WILLIAM LAMSON / Home – William Lamson’s work is odd combination of commercial-grade super-slick imagery and bizarre, sometimes unsettling situations.
