Radio UserLand, RSS, Weblog Tools and Design

Add navigator links to a Radio category. Radio UserLand tip: When using a category to publish a separate weblog, create a #navigatorLinks.xml file in that category's subfolder in wwwcategories (or copy the one in the www folder).
By editing that file directly with a text editor, you can give the category its own navigator links.
Jenny Levine has written a tutorial on editing navigator links that shows what this file should contain. [Workbench]

Why yah wanna learn CSS.
Zeldman's WDW2003 Keynote (see post) includes a slide that points to one of the awesome CSS Zen Garden designs. I haven't checked back in a while, but there are some real doozies. Favorites so far:
- Stormweather - my favorite of Shea's designs
- Dead or Alive - quite nice, subtle, well balanced
- Not So Minimal - not as flashy or stylish as some of the others, but clean and well crafted
- Zunflower - the overlapping columns is quite nice
- What Lies Beneath - soft spot for funky horizontals, very creative
- White Lily - beautifully designed
I haven't really done much visual design work in the past year or two, and probably won't be having much time in the near future, with work, classes, and projects piled (and piling), but still quite inspirational (and humbling). I'm tempted to try my hand at this when I need to procrastinate blow off some steam... but it'd probably be rather embarrassing.
THis is a GREAT project to help educate people about CSS. On-going and kick-ass. Thanks Leonard!
