- Gridulator: Make pixel grids, lickety-split
- Lovely tool for web designers to make pixel grids based on the needs of the site being built. Plus, it's free.
Links for September 22nd
- Bye-Bye, ‘My’ / Cameron Moll / Designer, Speaker, Author
- Why to use 'Your' instead of 'My' in web content. I've wondered about this for a long time, so it's really great to see a definitive, well thought answer.
Links for September 21st
- A List Apart: Articles: Forward Thinking Form Validation
- Taking advantage of HTML5 and CSS3 for the best client-side form validation. Really good stuff.

- Standing Up for Justice | onehandclapping
- "Our flesh is the same as their flesh. Our children are the same as their children. But our children go to school, eat three meals a day, have toys to play with, are vaccinated against disease, and enjoy the luxury of the innocence of childhood which their children can only dream of. Their daughters are ravished, their lands have been stolen by corporations, their children trafficked or tricked into slavery under the economic system that helps us remain rich and in power."

- Self-Inventory on Biblical Hermenuetics | onehandclapping
- This is an important resource on both a short and long term scale, in that we bring the answers to these questions with us whenever we approach the Bible, and furthermore they can (and do, I think) change. A keeper.
- Experimental Theology: Sexuality and the Christian Body: Part 2, Grace & Election
- There's a series of posts here reviewing a book on sexuality and the Christian body; this one is a fantastic one that dialogues with an essay by Rowan Williams, and with the deep grace exemplified in marriage. Beautiful.
- Lost World's Fairs
- With the launch of IE9 (in beta) today, this project done to showcase the new support that IE has for proper WOFF embedding has gone live. It is lovely.

- Why the Worst of Times for Politics and Media Has Been the Best of Times for Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show' — New York Magazine
- There's a great profile of Jon Stewart and the Daily Show. Brilliant quote from Stewart near the end: "But I know the difference between real social change and what we do. You know what we are? Soil enrichers. Maybe we can add a little fertilizer to the soil so that real people can come along and grow things."
- Combining meta viewport and media queries – QuirksBlog
- "If you want to make your websites ready form mobile, it’s best to combine <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"> with width media queries. That will give your site the optimal width (as determined by the device vendor, who really ought to know), and your site will look the better for it."

- How To Properly Apply for a Design Position | Mike Industries
- "We’ve gotten so many poor applications for this position that it really makes me wonder if designers today are aware of how art directors actually hire people. If you’re a designer and you’ll ever be looking for a new job in your life, you should read this."

- Let's build bigger banquet tables | Rachel Held Evans
- "That is the question at the heart of this crisis, and as we struggle together to answer it, I am convinced that what we don’t need is bigger buildings or fancier sound equipment, better pastors or more parishioners, newer ministries or deeper pockets. What we need is bigger banquet tables."
Links for August 27th
- small is plenty « the carnival in my head
- Thoughts on why small things really are enough, in life, church, ministry, and so on. There's a great deal of depth (though it isn't guaranteed and can be missing from small things) that is available to us when we do small things, and these are beautiful.
Links for August 25th
- The Parent Company Trap – The Daily Show with Jon Stewart – 08/23/2010 – Video Clip | Comedy Central
- "Fox News is either evil or stupid for not mentioning that Alwaleed bin Talal is News Corp.'s largest shareholder."
- Alex McManus » Blog Archive » The Cart and the Horse
- "We oftentimes proceed as if Jesus and Paul focused on evangelism and they did not. They didn’t focus on church planting either. They focused on discipleship. Neither evangelism nor church planting happen without disciples."
