I tweeted this yesterday, but found it humorous enough that I had to put a link up here on Keefr.com. If you don't find this little site funny, yeah.. you might not like most of the content on Keefr.com
Following up on yesterday's post about fonts not rendering completely properly, here's another fix/tweak for making fonts appear better on OS X:
Hat tip: Bret.
A co-worker sent out this article a few minutes ago, and had to post it here. While it's not a cross-browser magic bullet, the -webkit-font-smoothing set to "antialiasing" does wonders for making font-face fonts look better (and the right weight) in Chrome and Safari. Now if there were a "-moz-webkit-font-smoothing" property, or browsers supported the W3 font-smooth property.
Nice post from one of my favorite web design and development sites, A List Apart. Caches in general tend to be an impediment these days a world where more and more Web users are on high speed connections. Application cache is a rare breed of really crappy.
Nice writeup on the best of CSS. I tend to be a bit biased, and appreciate pretty much everything in the CSS spec. 
Nice writeup from over at Lifehacker about spending a week with the modern version of Internet Explorer (IE9). There's no doubt the browser has improved, but I think the main complaint most have is supporting (and having to test) legacy versions of the browser that were just plain horrible.
To me, anyone doing a comparison of multiple modern browsers, IE is never going to be the number one choice.

Nice little fix/hack to keep CSS transitions from happening prior to a page being fully loading. Seems like this could be futher useful than just with transitions.
Nice little hack to fire CSS based on current media queries in use — and it seems to work everywhere except Opera. I'm always a little weary of hack-based stuff, in case something changes when something updates.
I missed this for quite awhile, but have been doing a lot of testing with WordPress on my local work box via MAMP Pro. I just realized that in OS X Lion's sharing preference panel, there is no longer an option to enable/disable FTP/SFTP. Found a nice and comprehensive article here on how to do it via the good old Terminal/command line:
Was going to write up a little piece on how to find the current file's directory on a webserver, but the little article below does a good job of explaining it. I use this all the time for creating my .htaccess/.htpasswd combo, but can see other times when this would be useful as well.
I've adopted their code snippet for my own TextExpander time saving purposes:
