I Code in Tables chrisbowler:
Christian Ross has a confession: he codes in tables.
First off, let’s get this out of the way, clients don’t care. If it shows up well on their screen and is close in all of the major browsers, they’re happy. It doesn’t matter to them if their site can pass the W3C Validator.

Into The Forrst: On Forrst's architecture →
I’ve been getting a few requests for a write-up like this from curious Forrst’ers, so here goes nothing. Hardware: We’re on three MediaTemple (ve) boxes: one database, one staging, and one web frontend. They’ve each got 2GB RAM, 10,000 RPM RAID-10 disks, and all of that good stuff. I recommend…
Aaron's Life: AnyClip One Year Later →
A year ago, I flew to Israel to make some sweeping changes at AnyClip.
For starters, gone was the two year old company name PopTok along with 4 executives and a bunch of others who had been a part of the very family-oriented culture here. I’ll never forget that morning. Tough way to start…

I’m touring the land. It’s an adventure and I’m working with the coolest people in the world. I’ve got some incredible return in response to my New York game. So much so, that I’m extending my deal to be national - quite possibly globally. Here’s the revised gameplan:
What’s the deal?

… and tell us a random experience with Germans / Germany or anything German related?
Einmal hatte ich im Hinten eines Taxis gesessen. Der Fahrer entschied sich, ungefähr 70 mph zwischen zwei Verkehrampeln, mit nur etwa 100 Meter zwischen ihnen, zu fahren. Es war mir kein spaß.
