I've just realised that I have no logo for my site. So instead of doing it myself I thought I'd ask for help from you all out there. And so begin Matt's Googly Logo Search.
There really are no rules for the logo, other than the colour scheme you see here on my site. Simplicity is always better, and I like roundish simple logos. So If you have an urge to design a logo for free for some guy from the north, then please do so, eh.
You can enter your ... entry, by leaving a comment on this post with a link to your logo design. I will also let you guys vote for the best logo, so If you see a logo you like, leave a comment. The logo with the most votes will become my new identity.
One of the many exciting features of CSS 3 is the ability to create columnar text. In this article I will show you a way to fake two column text with a little Javascript.

To use the script all you need to do is download the script and include it in the head of your document.
First off let me state, I have no clue what I'm talking about here. Now that we all know, or already knew, that, let's get started. From what I can figure out, the basics of UR* acronyms goes a little som'n som'n like this:
A URI is HOW (the protocol), WHERE (the location of the resource, website, book, etc.), and WHAT (The name of the resource). A URL is HOW and WHERE. Finally, A URN is WHAT. This leads to the URI = URL + URN.
So how does this relate to say http://example.com/? Well, beats the hell out of me. But certainly Machines know how to read the UR* of that thing.
There have many concerns and question about the template system used in WordPress. Mostly the concerns are with n00bs and the complications of PHP. “I want to change this and that, but don't know PHP”. I hear this a lot. But the thing is, you don't need to know PHP to change the Templates in WordPress.
The Template System
Lets' start with “the Loop” as we call it. Probably the most confusing part of the Template for a non-programmer. The Loop looks like this:
I was over at Stu Nicholls today and saw this really cool British flag completely done up in CSS. So I investigated a little futher, figured out how to do "diagonals" in CSS, and started work on my own.
After wasting about an hour and a half, I came up with my version of the Canadian Flag. Yes that's right all done in CSS, including the maple leaf. The maple leaf is a little ... off, but still, it was fun trying to figure out what triangles go where. And if you have IE, well it probably won't work, sorry. But let me know what you think. ...
