Today (April 9th) is CSS Naked Day, all day long. Enjoy the ugly.

(This all validates too funnily enough! Checked the validator yesterday for the first time for a long time. Probably not SEO friendly though eeek)

The Beeb have just launched their new site, and boy is it fantastic. I was sitting there looking at the rugby news, and presto as the page loads I notice a different layout. Very, very good work. Take a look.

Never seen it played like this before. Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones is a farmer, who sells his own produce under the Black Farmer ™ brand, who one day realized that he was in fact the only black farmer in England. Thanks to good PR and interest in his situation, he has made a bundle, even starting a blog about it all. Woah.

I wonder what I could blag being a 1/8 Welsh, 1/8 Irish, 1/4 Greek, 3/8 Norwichian, 1/8 Israeli web developer? Suggestions are welcome.

Slow week for my brain at the moment, so enjoy some links in the meantime:

24Ways: The advent calendar for web developers, every day up until the 24th a tutorial is posted, and some of them are even useful. I make joke!

FreeRice: Nice little charity thingy-ma-bob. You have to guess the meaning of words, and for every word you get right, 20 grains of rice are donated. And it’s not a simple as you think, as the word list changes depending on your success. For instance, I’ve been getting words such as ichtyic and imbibe. Good fun.

More on the way …

Fine, there are only three. Have a look see:

SMeltery: Top font designer, also happens to supply 40 odd free fonts, all of which are ‘duuuuuude!’.

Smashing Magazine: Spending more and more of my procrastination time here now, lots of cool stuff to search through, for both tools and inspiration.

The Superest: Heroes of the world do battle, but not in the way you think!

Plugin Generator: For all Wordpress people out there, have a look at this. Wow.

What a great idea for … well … okay I’m not entirely sure what this is for, but it’s still pretty entertaining. I did yoga for 3 years at school to help with rugby since im such an inflexible trunk, so it’s quite funny to see zombies doing the same. Must be hard to flexible when you’ve been through rigor mortis.

Here’s a cool little number: A bad joke by me and Dylan

As you can see, I’ve done a bit of a redesign. I got fed up on trying to create a theme from scratch because I could never decide on the structure outside of the flashy header bit. So I did what I’ve always done with WP and hacked an existing theme so it’s almost unrecognizable.
