I'm not sure why your comment is down-voted. The article isn't written well.

<aside> is in HTML5.

<abbr> would be incorrect for this usage. You could, perhaps, stretch the use case of the "i" element (not "em"), though a simple span would probably be the way to go.

I'm love-hate, lately, with these two "extreme" breweries: De Dolle Brouwers, and Dogfish Head

I've also been enjoying Three Floyds' Alpha King Ale.

It seems to me that the Wired article was written after the TechCrunch article in the same vein.

First Last.fm; now this. That makes 2 TechCrunch articles in 2 weeks that make some kind of big, unsubstantiated claim. For hits, perhaps. Maybe fake journalism is their new weekly feature.

The Web Inspector is actually part of WebKit itself (the rendering engine). You can get any improvements that happen there and between the chrome (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) by downloading WebKit nightlies: http://nightly.webkit.org

This update is for Safari itself, which is the UI/chrome.

The built-in web developer is definitely on-par with Firebug and Web Developer. In some ways it's even nicer.

As far as plug-ins go, Safari's had them for years. Apple just doesn't support them or advertise them.

Historically, Arial rendered better on Windows than Helvetica, so to offer Macs a form of Helvetica over Arial, you'll generally see:

  font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;

If you're going after an English-speaking audience, look into getting an English-fluent copywriter (or speaker) to give things a once-over.

"Can't Express Yourself in traditional Resume ?" is your tag-line, huge, and very stilted -- that space (" ") should also not separate "Resume" and "?".

Yes, you may come across a cool idiom to use in your code by procrastinating and reading blogs. You may also come across a cool idiom by coding, looking at your code and thinking: how could I do this better; share your code with someone you could learn from, or read a book or two on your language of choice.

Don't make excuses for your procrastination. Accept that procrastination is sometimes just a fun alternative to what you need to get done. Luckily, the end of the article shies away from the bombastic title.

He wrote it for Hackety Hack, which will be built on Shoes for its next version. Whether or not it's included in Shoes itself or just HH will remain to be seen, but I'd love to see it in the former.

  Sounds like this isn't really big news at all ... Or am I too skeptical?

It does seem harder to trust a news source these days for accurate news, but as far as one thing that worked once being news or not: isn't that one definition of what "news" used to be? The discovery of the first _____.

Cool, sure, but blind rescues are as the crow flies to bugs: use them wisely, or use them _why-ly.

> Look at the headings. They're really beautiful. How do I do that in CSS? I can't. They are images.

But really, the whole point is that they _are_ doing that in CSS. The images are defined in CSS; no "img" tags here. Browsers (and bots) that don't have that CSS support gracefully degrade to indexable text.

The headings are also nothing special. Just the "Zapfino" font pre-rendered. You could use CSS today and get it to work on every computer that has that font installed (every Mac and iPhone, to name a few), or if the browser has more experimental CSS support, you can render any custom font (with an open license) by specifying a path to the font online. But alas, most browsers do not support this, and we developers use sIFR instead.

> To really demonstrate CSS you'd need to take all those style sheets and apply them to a different HTML document and see if they still looked good. No one has done that experiment (and I suspect no one will) but I predict the results would not look nearly as good.

That's not the point of CSS.

His comments about the CSS Garden are extremely misguided: "But how much of the loveliness is due to CSS and how much is due to photoshop is far from clear."

The whole point is that every page of the garden is the same, HTML-wise. CSS transforms each variation completely from the last.

Change the "ftp" protocol to "http" for a more reasonable download speed.

I think "they" were the developers, though (not the publisher), and they weren't "complaining" so much as commenting. I think this kind of piracy rate is pretty common with software.

There is cost in overhead, too. Beyond getting the drive:

  - Connecting it to the internet so you can access it from anywhere
  - Setting up iTunes to stream properly
  - Setting up a mechanism that caches recent/popular files locally
  - Develop an iPhone app to access the drive
