Earlier today I finally go around to signing up for a Last.FM account. When I downloaded the Last.FM application though I was left rather unimpressed. It seems to think it needs to use both dock icon and a menu-bar icon. Now being on a 12" iBook every pixel of screen space is valuable to me, so pick where you want to sit and stay there. If you dont know where you want to be give me a preference so I can chose.
Its ok though because after a little searching I found a replacement, iScrobbler, that sits in my menu-bar and not my dock and looks and works a lot nicer than the standard app. I guess I can get on with my life now.
A small quirk that I found when creating a custom style-sheet today is when you put extra content in to a page using the CSS rule content: "word"; that text is not selectable in either Gecko or WebKit rendering engines. I assume this is because as is stated in the CSS 2 spec "Generated content does not alter the document tree." Therefor the text doesn't actually exist. This could prove quite useful for adding in things to pages you don't want people to be able to easily copy and paste.

I think this holds true for the iPhone too. Apple may only be going for 2%-3% of the market, but its clearly the top 2%.
Mr Eric Meyer has posted a nice little reset style sheet to remove pre-set styles in browsers.
I upgraded my iBook yesterday. I went from 512MB of RAM to 1.5GB of RAM. It is like giving the thing a new burst of life. I am now wishing I made this decision a long while ago.
