Feedburner services nu gratis

Feedburners services TotalStats og MyBrand er fra og med i går nu gratis for de mere end 450000 brugere af FeedBurner. Der er inkluderingen i den glade GoogleFamilie, der har givet FeedBurner mulighed for at tilbyde sine services til alle brugere uden at tage betalt for dem. Læs mere på FeedBurner-bloggen: FreeBurner for Everyone.

TotalStats er Feedburners trafikanalyse for feeds og MyBrand er en feature, der viser dit feed som det ville se ud på dit website og altså ikke som den tidligere gratis-udgave hvor feed-urlen fx var feeds.feedburner.com/ditmegetspændendesite.

Wohoo – vi må håbe at Google snart køber Irma, så maden også bliver gratis :-)

Cascading Style Sheets

If you’re out of reading for the summer – this phd. thesis on Cascading Style Sheets, might be right for you.
Chances are, that there are lots of more easily digested documentation and introductions to CSS, but I’ve always been a sucker for the academic approach…
Who said Ivory Tower?

View in FireFox

Firefox has a nice extension that lets you view webpages in IE – now another nifty extension lets you ‘view in Firefox‘ from IE.Go home, IE

A whole lotta bookmarks

Squarefree has a lot of bookmarklets which gives your browser extra funktionalities in categories such as search, SEO, forms and validation. Choose your favourite browser and drag single bookmarklets or whole menus to your toolbar. I bet the functionalities of all the listed bookmarklets can be found as firefox extensions, but the drag and drop actions on the squarefree site, is quite nice.

Language considerations

I’ve had a lot of thought on what language to write this blog in – or more accurately on what policy I should have regarding to use of language. I’m inclined to write in english as a my thoughts on digital learning and webpage design has a larger potential for getting feedback. But still a lot of thought on the daily life in Denmark just works better in danish.
As I am writing this I realize that my gut feeling all the time has been to write in both languages – as most of the blogs with danish roots that I read also do. I quite like the way tveskov does it – icons showing categories and with a little danish flag on danish posts.

A thought occured to me – with all the possibilities for automated translation – wouldn’t it be possible to automatically translate posts into say spanish, german, swedish and esperanto. I figure that there must be some way of doing this using API . The different versions could then be placed as alternative indexes (ex: index-esp, index-ger etc.).
