(D)in rainbows
I applaud Radiohead for releasing their latest album label-less (and for their use of DIN) but does that purchase experience ever suck. Ten or more unresponsive pages in the purchase process? If it was anyone other than Radiohead, I’d have bailed at the first missing graphic.
KC FTW!
Nice “won” Kevin.

A killer portfolio by Steve. Can’t say I love the JavaScript alert telling me that my browser (Safari 2) isn’t supported though. (via AisleOne)

iNdependence 1.25
“An easy-to-use interface for modifying your iPhone.” Why is that gorgeous graphic not the application icon?

Behind the Scenes: Layer Tennis
Chris Glass thoroughly documents his match with Naz Hamid. A Campfire back-channel? Sounds cushy (if the match between Kevin and I had one, either I wasn’t invited or the invite got snared by SpamSieve—not that there would have been time for it).

CSS Animation
This (sweet) native Safari implementation poses an interesting question, should animation be considered presentation or behavior?
