A wiki BarnRaising is a planned event in which a community meets at a designated time to build content on the wiki together. One person alone can't build all the content in a wiki, and a community of people needs to understand how to use the wiki, and feel a sense of buy-in for it to become successful. A BarnRaising achieves this because people come expecting to learn how to use the wiki, and they are able to interact with each other as they work, thus strengthening community bonds and creating a support network that keeps people using the wiki. - Chris Coyier

Timothy McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Letters from the Hellbox. - http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links...
No scribe, they claimed, could make such perfect copies of a book. In order to stop being strung up and murdered in those terribly 15th-century churchy ways, Fust had to reveal his technology. Once he did, he was allowed to sell the bibles and drive his empty cart back to lovely Mainz, pockets lined. - Chris Coyier

New to York, Tyler Thompson, Squarespace - Lifestream - http://www.newtoyork.com/
Hi, if you are coming to this site via Internet Explorer 6, you might not be getting the best experience possible. Honestly, I can't even begin to think about what your entire experience on the internet must be like? (...probably like riding a bike on the highway while cars blow by you on their way to Costco to get gallons of mayonnaise and 60-inch plasma TV's). How will you ever be able to use this website?????? You wont. You're an asshole and your browser is an asshole. So look, I'm going to be honest: I kind of hate you. BUT we c-a-n make this work. Here is what I am going to need you to do: fire up your Toshiba ShitBook© that weighs about 45 pounds, wipe the Cheeto dust off the screen, download Safari ( http://www.apple.com/safari... ), delete Internet Explorer from your computer, punch yourself in the face, and get me a pulled pork sandwich. - Chris Coyier

The coffee should come with refills, which should be offered as: "A little top-off, hon?" - Chris Coyier

Design for Startups: The Aesthetics of Web Apps in 6 Questions - ReadWriteStart - http://www.readwriteweb.com/readwri...
"As a designer, I'd love to say it's the most important element," said Benedetto. "Unfortunately, my experience is that the look and feel is often inessential, to the point of being irrelevant. Some of the most successful things I have worked on, in terms of traffic and conversions, have been successful almost in spite of the design, rather than because of the design. - Chris Coyier

An additional step you can take to ensure ideal lighting conditions in your workspace is to paint the walls with Munsell 8 Gray. This paint is specially formulated to have a flat spectral response with no color bias. Unlike other hues, this type of gray will not affect your perception of other colors in the spectrum. It creates a “pure” and neutral viewing environment. You may have noticed this color on the wall of photo studios and print shops. - Chris Coyier

"Father," I would say. "My CMS software is one iteration behind in its updates, and has been hit by a worm that infiltrates spambot code into the site's permalink structure using a classic JScript overflow exploit.
