Link Day

• View Rendered Source plugin for Firefox will give you a nice view of your nested HTML elements.
• In explaining to me yesterday about the CIL yesterday, Andrew linked me to this screencast illustrating that CIL is truly independant of anything else.

• Paul Thurrott has a real axe to grind with Windows Vista. He may be right, but the article is written from an extremist point of view, which immediates casts doubt in my mind. Still, there’s no doubt that Vista is overdue, overbudget, and missing several key features that were promised early on.
• Andy Rutledge redesigned (for fun) whitehouse.gov, with excellent results. His explanations are good reading for any aspiring web designer.
