Welcome to random notes, a semi-regular, almost-daily and completely platitudinous collection of text, pixels, links and other finds from the web

The A List Apart Survey results are out. Last year, the results were published as a PDF, which was a bit of an anti-climax from a standardista perspective. But this year, they’ve got it all out in bread-and-butter HTML and CSS, the highlight of which has to be Eric A. Meyer’s mind-numbingly beautiful, yet accessible, CSS work for the graphs. Plain insanity, if you ask me, but it’s top-drawer production-grade code.

Hello

Most folks who visit random notes seem to hang around for about 9.710 minutes on average.

My name is and I just learned that the hash sign is also known as an octothorp. It's exactly this kind of unnecessary information works its way into conversations that scares people away from me. Not that I am really complaining though…
