Web Design in Oklahoma City

Here's some good stuff to read from the last week or so:

1. Copy HTML Links with Firefox on Daily Blog Tips: This article highlights a couple of Firefox extensions that can make the job of copying and pasting links a lot faster. This would really help with posts like the one I'm writing here, but I haven't had time to implement it yet. I plan too soon, though.
2. What to do when the domain name you want is gone from North x East: Here's a discussion of a few helpful, though somewhat obvious, ways to get around that age-old problem of securing the right domain name.
3. A Preview of HTML 5 from A List Apart: I think the article title says it all. If you get excited thinking about HTML 5, then this article is definitely for you. If you have no idea what HTML 5 is, you should probably skip this one.
4. Blogging to Improve a Website from Vandelay Website Design: This article hits on some themes we've discussed here on our blog before. Mainly, the advantages of having a blog on your main website rather than separate from it.
5. Creating Sexy Stylesheets from Vitamin: If you think that CSS code in and of itself is cool-looking, then this article is for you.
6. Search Illustrated: Search Engine Sitemaps from Search Engine Land: A nice little visual illustration of how XML sitemaps work. Remember, Water, Sky and Light websites have built in XML sitemaps for your search engine fun.
7. Killing Some Bad Layout Conventions from Design View: See a few high-profile websites that, according to this author, are utilizing bad layouts.
8. Keyboard Commands for Mac OS X: An Uber List from Design Adaptations: We've had some discussion here on the value of keyboard shortcuts, and we've also had some evidence of how mac people think that macs are way better than everything, so I thought this article brought the two themes together nicely and in a helpful way.
