Mozilla.org Gets Standardized
The new Mozilla.org has been featured this week on The Weekly Standards: a site that "is dedicated to recognizing sites that have been lovingly crafted with web standards and the future in mind." I got an email from Adam Howell, the guy that runs the site, last week with some questions about the …
Wards Island Disc Golf Map
On Toronto Island, there's a very nice disc golf course (aka frisbee golf course) that runs along a good portion of Wards Island. This was one of the things I was really looking forward to when I moved to Toronto a few months ago. However, although it's easy to find the course itself, it's very …
Zoom Zoom Zoom
I've recently been working on some concepts for a redesign of a site that uses a text-resizing widget. The audience for the site is primarily seniors, so large text is important. And, before you start shouting that people should use their browser's built-in support for this, many visitors to the …
Stallone Meets Pelé
What can possibly go wrong with a film that brings togther Silvester Stallone with Michael Caine and soccer legend Pelé?

At the Power Plant
I visited the Power Plant Art Gallery for the first time last week with my lovely girlfriend while she was in Toronto visiting. It's a fun light-hearted contemporary gallery on Lake Ontario in (who would have guessed) an old power station. If you're in the city the current exhibits are well worth … read more »
Biking the Brickworks
Tonight I got out for my second mountain bike adventure in Toronto where there is some surprisingly (probably not for the locals) good singletrack to be found right in the city. I went out for a ride in the Don Valley with my sister and her husband and was pleased to find some fine trails up … read more »
Asterix et Obelix en Film
A few nights ago I rented "Astérix et Obélix contre César" from the local video store. I loved reading the books when I was younger and I was very skeptical that this film had any chance of success in recreating the feel of the comic. However, starring Gérard Depardieu and Roberto Benigni I … read more »
