#grid is a tiny jQuery plugin for the rest of us. What does it do?
It inserts a layout grid in web pages, allows you to hold it in place, and toggle between displaying it in the foreground or background.
I am not a fan of JavaScript plugins. I always try to avoid it unless it really enhances a website. But this is a jewel. An invisible one.
If you are a Web developer/designer, don’t miss #grid.
At times your life becomes darker and carry less hope. It happens, right?
While curating High Quality Bookmarks I met the Library of Human Imagination. It is a real library which aims to get us closer to the human nature, the good and evil, the beauty and the ugliness of humanity. There are some ways to define “evolution”, but no matter what you’ll say about it, it will remain part of human nature. And I loved this project.
This library is a reason to get a grip and move on. Yes, I must visit it once.
Since there’s no website of the library, I embed a video from TED 2008, where the man behind it, Mr. Jay Walker, presents it to us for the first time.
(Yes, it’s an vulgar Flash embedment.)
Read also an interview of Jay Walker and the relevant article on WIRED.

Oh, you might have seen this wallpapers on Zeldman’s website, but I swear I saw it first! So it belongs to me!

Beauty in Web design is a series of articles written by Cennydd Bowles. The articles were based on his presentation at SXSW Interactive.
It has been a long time since I’ve read such fresh and truly inspiring content regarding our profession (and passion). So do yourself a favour and read the whole series.
High Quality Bookmarks or hqbk is a pet project I developed some months ago. It aims to provide great links which deserve to be amongst your bookmarks. hqbk cares mostly about technology, design, lifestyle and science.
Until yesterday the website published content in Greek. Not anymore. From now on hqbk is an 100% English website.
Visit it or even better subscribe to its RSS feed. It won’t disappoint you.
In printed books, the two-page spread was our canvas. It’s easy to think similarly about the iPad. Let’s not. The canvas of the iPad must be considered in a way that acknowledge the physical boundaries of the device, while also embracing the effective limitlessness of space just beyond those edges.
We’re going to see new forms of storytelling emerge from this canvas. This is an opportunity to redefine modes of conversation between reader and content. And that’s one hell of an opportunity if making content is your thing.
Such articles help us redefine the medium and the process of reading. Excellent.
Jason Fried, the soul of 37signals explains why it is practically impossible to work at your working environment.
What Fried says is not magic. Nor wisdom. It’s a reality we’ve learned to accept without asking why.

It’s almost a year since my latest post. Sometimes blogs live and conquer the world and some other times they fall apart. I would like to believe that this is the last time I apologise to myself and you, dear readers, for my long absence.
So I am going to take it easy. Welcome back.
