Advice Wanted: New Splash Page Dimensions
"In a few weeks 30 billboards will display a new URL in the local community (population 200,000). The URL will point to another site with all the real content, so this is just a splash page. The whole thing will be a graphic. Having said that, is there an optimum size I should use? The splash page/graphic will have about one half of the content in text, which will probably be 50-80 words."

Google Chrome (Google Browser)
"In a rather interesting blog post by Philipp Lenssen at Google Blogoscoped, there's details of what's supposed to be an open source web browser maintained by Google. As usual with browsers and "new" features, some of the things touted are already happening in Opera, such as tabs being above the address bar & a speed dial type of home page. There are some other interesting features noted though."

Major Blow to Service Agreement Arbitration Clauses

Decade old Yahoo Internet Life mags
"When I went to sit in my chair this morning I found a stack of 10 year old Yahoo Internet Life magazines already sitting there. Rather than bark at them to get out of my chair, I decided to check them out with my coffee. I haven't gone through all of them yet, but the January 1998 issue "Top of the NET '97" caught my eye & I couldn't wait to check that out."

playing 3 flv in one flashfile
"Hello Flash experts, Im in a situation where I have 3 flv's and I would like to merge them into 1 flashfile. This could be easy but I also want to make 3 buttons in the merged flash file, where each button plays one of the 3 flv's So to reduce loadingtime, I would like to load the 3 files via a flahfile, and not as one completly merged file. At the same time, when clicking on button one, all 3 flv should play in a row, if clicked on button 2, only flv2 and flv3 should play etc."

Will Google consider reposting of now offline content at a different address Duplicate Content ?
"Few days ago, after my brother who’s at the US and supposed to be paying the bills for the domain name company on my behalf refused to pay my bills, my host has removed my site. I do have my posts offline, and I am planning to open a new blog and post all the posts there. Now I want to ask you if Google will check its cache and penalize me for duplicate content. The earlier domain was registered on my brother’s name. Can you please explain how does google handle this."

Featured Tutorial: Multi-Column Layout Using CSS Float
For this tutorial, we're targeting a layout that has three columns of content with spaces at the top and bottom for a header and footer. The page will be a fixed width and will also be centered in the browser's display area (the figure to your left).
We'll begin with an XHTML page structure in its most simple form. In the <head> of our document, we'll point to an external CSS file.
Once upon a time, web developers used the HTML element <table> to layout content columns. This practice is now recognized as cumbersome and not very semantic.
These days, instead of using <table>, we use the <div> element as a container for content. Once you get the hang of it, using <div> becomes very liberating and greatly reduces the amount of markup needed to layout a page.
This is an intermediate level tutorial that discusses one method of multi-column page layout. It assumes the reader has a good knowledge and understanding of HTML and CSS.
