Latest Blog Entry - Safari... Windows.... whaaaa?
From my blog The Palette [skywisenight]

Yup, writing this using the new Safari for Windows beta release, and I have to say I'm pleased with how it's working. It's a lot faster than the current Safari in Tiger, but it is version 3, so it should be. Our sites editor still doesn't work, so I have to write this in a plain-jane textarea box, but that's ok. Didn't see Safari being released for windows coming, but maybe I should have... look how popular iTunes turned out to be.

I know one thing for sure, Safari in my mac is going to get a lot less use now. Quite a bit easier to run here in XP than to use VNC to remote to my mac to test stuff.

And you know what else... this post was 3 times long than this, but safari for windows just cut a bunch of it out when posting and I went back to edit, which was there, posted again, even shorter, then going back was the shorter version for all backs. Boooooooooo

      Quite easily actually.  People call me at home.  I call people at home.  When I go shopping, I go shopping.  If I forget something, I either use a pay phone (way cheaper per month) or wait until next time.  In my opinion, there is nothing in my life that requires my instant response.

      Now, I'm not saying there aren't people who need to be reachable at all times, I can think of many.  I'm just not one of them.

      I don't care if I seem ancient or archaic.  I am not someone on a leash and if I want to be unavailable I don't feel like I need to make an excuse for it.


      I second this!  I also refuse to own a cell phone for these very reasons.  It's not that there aren't moments that I wish I had one, they just don't out weigh the cost/bother/leash associated.

    • Words on the end of every post cutting off...
    • Also worth mentioning, There is a new theme in the works for this site which doesn't fall apart when text sizes are changed... or have text slide out of frames/disappear or any of that crap.  It would be up now, but I haven't had a chance to finish it because the powers that be keep getting me to work on new sections for the site... which I suppose isn't a bad thing either!

      So, there are prospects on the horizon for us.  I really want our site to hold up for all ways that people view it.  I hurts me soul a little bit when seeing sites (this one included) which can't look the same zoomed up as it does using default settings.

    • Hi,

      I have found the problem to be a table cell not wrapping as it's supposed to.  The left side where the user avatar is was getting wider with the larger fonts and pushing the post body into the overflow.  I've fixed the cell (the thead row where it says Thread (## posts)) to not force the left column to expand.  Expect this fix to be on the site in the next few hours.
