Seeing it through Safari User's Eyes This comes just in time since I've been told that the stylish buttons I was so excited about do not appear particularly stylish in a Safari browser.

Dean Grassroots Summit Recap "Power is never given; it must be taken" so went the message from Dean campaigner and seasoned campaign veteran Mike Ford. Speaking from his years of experience ("Joe Trippi was my project" Ford said of his friend and former protege), Ford told us to take matters into our own hands. Don't wait, don't ask. Well, ask if you want to but don't wait before acting. He threw in a couple of funny stories about Dr. Dean's frugality before he left us at 5:00 to get on a plane. The First Unitarian Church was already hubbing at 2:00 PM, an hour before the summit was to begin. Over 75 people had volunteered to come early to set up chairs and check people in. Lots of familiar faces from San Francisco Dean events, and many new faces from the Deaniacs of the East Bay, Sacramento, Davis, Napa down to Grass Valley. I saw craigslist Craig Newmark, who has been sprinkling political observations in his blog as of late. He also told me to spread this help wanted word: craigslist is looking for a customer service manager. When he walked away David Schmidt, an editor for the EPA and author of the SF Dean newsletter asked me "did he post the job on craigslist?" Good question. I met redhead Mariva Aviram, a writer, editor, and Dean activist. Political humor has been her focus most recently, but not too long ago she authored XML for Dummies. Later when we were in regional groups a tall young guy told us about Deanspace, a make-your-own-Dean-website tool which he coauthored. "You wrote deanspace -- which one are you?" somebody asked, his name was Josh. "Outlandish Josh?" asked Richard Hoefer, creator of Dean Media Team. I had no idea what outlandish meant in this context until I checked out Deanspace and clicked over to outlandish josh's blog. The prize for the community-coming-together moment happened around 8:00 PM, near the end of the 5-hour event. In our regional group of about 25, John Showalter stood to introduce himself; he moved here from Brooklyn only months ago. He's now living in the Bernal Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. At this point Alex Laskey, about five seats away from John felt it was time to introduce himself. You see, Alex moved here from Brooklyn only months ago too. Alex moved to the SF neighborhood of....you guessed it, Bernal Heights. When I left they were still talking, discovering more similarities. 3:10:09 AM    comment []  - See Also:  Howard Dean | Politics | San Francisco

Pretty Buttons Stylish Buttons. In this article, author Michael Matti uses CSS to create colorful, stylish alternatives to the common buttons found in standard web forms. 1126 [WebReference News] Hmm...they are not showing up all stylish when I put them here. Will have to read the article (nuts). 2:32:03 AM    comment []
