CAPTCHAs and Translation: Online Collaboration

Daniel Ogden — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:15:10 +0000

I subscribe to the TED Talks podcast, and saw this one the other day. This talk details some amazing work being done to turn mundane and annoying things like CAPTCHAs into something that benefits society, which you’ve probably heard of before. But what’s even more interesting is what one of the CAPTCHA creators is doing next. A brilliant and inspirational idea.

If you’ve got 16 and a half minutes to spare, I highly recommend it.

HTML5 Cheat Sheets

These are very handy for having up on the wall near my desk at work, just for a quick look for tags or events when I’m building a site.

If you don’t know HTML5 or are learning, these could be very handy. You can download the images or even have them professionally printed.

As Featured on CSS Design Gallery…

My website has been featured on the CSS Design Gallery.

I noticed not only because I’m the one who submitted my site, but because I got a spike in traffic from their site. It’s really nice to have it featured on there, even just for my own satisfaction.

If you can’t see it there, here is my site, with some excellent company — the two thumbnails above it are sites I’ve been working on for Soul Media; Shoes for Crews and Human Headline. Nice! That was a total fluke, by the way. I didn’t even submit those sites.

I just thought I’d make it super clear I’m on there. For the historical record, obviously.

Great way to start the new year, now I just have to keep it up!

I finally launched my new website!

It’s hard to believe this day ever came. This website has been ‘in construction’ for as long as I could remember.

The last version of my site was built before I started working in the industry, and it got to the stage where it was kinda embarrassing to have on the web. Now I’ve finally got my act together and put this up.

I guess it’s always the way, but looking at it now I can see so many ways that I would have built it differently, but at least it’s up now, and I’m really happy with how it looks. The web world is changing so quickly and often, a ‘modern’ website doesn’t stay modern for long.

I’m primarily going to use this website as a port-of-call for anyone who want to get in touch with me. I am going to use it as a record of all my fingerprints on the web, so if you ever want to know anything about me, it will be shown here.

If you find something that’s broken, it would be super nice of you to let me know.

Cheers!
