Spiderwick
Sep 7th
Well, it was one of those crazy, sit in front of your computer from 16 hours a day (ok 3 of those in a row) hauls but Frank Rust and I put together Spiderwick.com over the weekend (what holiday?). It’s still a little bit of a work in progress, but hey what isnt.
The books themselves are geared towrads kids, but i still found it to be still a pretty interesting read. A divorced mom moves into a dilapidated old house with her daughter and two twin sons (one of which seems to have anger management issues). The kids wind up finding a field guide about faeries and goblins and such that exist in the world around them, but there are those who dont want the book to be found…
They are also making a movie out of the five books….should be pretty good if they do it right.

Sep 1st
A List Apart has a really interesting article on embedding flash in html while still supporting standards. You have to use a couple of small hacks…but the code does come out cleaner, and standards-compliant.
