1. The CSS3 Tests are new from Dante Evans. (Via Dante's article on Evolt - CSS3 - The New Frontier.) See which browsers can handle each new style. The winner may surprise you.
2. Dillo is a new browser aimed at low-spec computers. (Via WebmasterWorld.)
3. Matrix co-creator ready for sex change - (via Vlade on Shodown). But what will they call the Brothers after that? The Wachowski Family?
4. In a related link, the movie Troy has brought about an article discussing the idea of seeing Men in skirts!
5. Lastly, I came across this site recently and knew I'd found a gem. The simple beauty of the design and great use of colours of the Journal section had me hooked straight away. (Not sure about the messy background image though.) Biroco is a personal blog and design company site where the quality writing stands out from the crowd. I know I have to read every post here. The author (who I won't namecheck as he seems to go by three different names) is also heavily into Chinese poetry and the Yijing (or I Ching), the Chinese oracle book. There's a superb introduction on this; he has also studied the hexagrams in it and made some fascinating pages with images based on their patterns. (Beautiful design on these pages as well.) The author also runs KAOS magazine via the site. Then there are "fragments, essays, articles, photographs, poems, drawings, paintings, and other miscellanea" to discover. Even if not all the content of Biroco appeals to you, bookmark this site as you'll need plenty of time to enjoy reading it.
