- Radiation Rules...
- Well, I’m at the end of my radiation treatments. I have three left! Woooooo! From what they’ve told me over the last few weeks, I’m supposed to be sick, bedridden, not eating, almost-needing-a-feeding-tube, etc. I’ve seen none of that. I’m guessing it has to do with my age. Most of their patients that receive throat [...]

- Fridays Joke: The winning toast
- I thought I had posted this one already, but I can't reference to it though that might be because I've been up since 4:20am with my brain ticking over like mad? Enjoy!
Patrick O'Malley hoisted his beer and said: "Here's to spending the rest of me life between the legs of me wife!" - and he took home the top prize for the best toast of the night.
In bed later that night, he told his wife: "Mary, I won the prize for the best toast of the night." She said, "Aye, Paddy, what was your toast?"
So he told her: "Here's to spending the rest of me life sitting in church beside me wife."

- Gmail now has rich text signatures
From within the settings page of Gmail you can now create rich text signatures including changing font site, text align, style, colour, add images and links etc
Though this has been one (simple) feature missing from the product for a long time its not something I have missed. I know too many companies that abuse this feature and include un-needed images and just streams of multi-coloured text and links. Don't get me wrong, I am happy to see it, I am going to use it, but I am scared to see how some people will implement it.

- Pure CSS3 post it note
I've been ill the last couple of days which meant I couldn't really focus on anything too heavy. So with being awake half the night I thought I should just play around CSS3 and it didn't take long till I came up with a pure CSS3 Post-it note made with no images. The only extra library I have used in this demo is Google Fonts for the script text. Code after the note:
Quick discaimer - I have no ideas which browsers this works in. All I can tell you is that it looks good in Chrome and Safari!
