 It must be catching, this idea about placing a face half in the dark (see my previous post about Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard.) OTOH, this perhaps is a representation of the tunnel in which Brisbane motorists will travel, shut off from civilisation, with only the road in front to concentrate on. Mr. Cleary, will, by then, enjoying his sense of achievement somewhere else - anywhere else, just so long as he doesn't have to sit looking down the trunk of Brisbane's white elephant. | ||

 Yes, the Vista screen does look like a plastic lunchbox, but that's not the worst of it. Using the IPod wheel is so derivative, however, using Javascript to manage text files is unnecessary. So this means the text and graphics can be served together - but, it also means that the text and graphics are no longer searchable. People seem to have been giving Vista the thumbsdown for security reasons, there are enough design reasons to give this one a big miss. | ||

 One can't be quite sure that the Oz's photographer really couldn't have taken a beter-composed picture than this - after all, how many faces can we see clearly? And why is it important that our breakfast viewing include acres of rabbit fur and fake horsehair? One can't help feeling that the expected impression is that judges are as uninteresting, untidy and boring as the rest of us. | ||

 Maybe The WestAustralian is just killing two birds with one stone, but knowing that The Oz also has a propensity for ads that refer to the article nearby, one has to say that somebody here has a sense of humour that hasn't been drowned out completely by editorial directives. | ||

 the more they stay the same. The Australian's web elves have been playing around with css. After all, where's the power in being able to display consistent formatting across (and down!) a page? Let's just see how many fonts we can get in. Not counting normal and bold in the same fontface, I found 11 different fonts, and that doesn't include whatever fonts are used in advertisements. Why does News persist with trying to fit everything in on the front page, though? It makes for a very cluttered view, more reminiscent of the early internet geek news sites than the broadsheet newspaper from which it has transmogrified. And as for forcing the user to employ horizontal scrolling ..... whoever insisted that this operation stay ought to be forced to roll up toilet paper by hand! I will give them this, though, the inside pages load a bit more smartly now- one of the virtues of using css since even the masthead is done in css. | ||
