- Andrew Berls | Reducing bad signup emails with mailcheck.js
Handy for work, the rest of you can skip it.

This is a hugely important insight into modern (computer) game design, I feel.

Some absolutely beautiful choices in here.
- Start 2012 By Taking 2 Minutes to Clean Your Apps Permissions
A really good idea – a list of popular web apps, with links that will let you manage what other web apps have permissions to use them.

Jquery scrolling effects plugin. Might be handy at work.

"Everyone has their bullshit. You can simply decide whose you're willing to tolerate." Spot on.

- A Brief Rant on the Future of Interaction Design
This is utterly brilliant. It very neatly skewers several big flaws in that Microsoft vision-of-the-future thing, and actually suggests several interesting possibilities for transformative technologies, if anyone can figure out how to do them. It also makes me think of a whole new spectrum of problems for people with certain disabilities that will need solving. If you give even a little shit about how you interact with the technology around you, this is a must read.
- Custom input types for edit in place
I think I'm about to fall down a JS hole. This, specific, JS hole. Lucky me.

- Adactio: Journal—Erase and rewind
The BBC it seems, refuse to learn lessons from their own history. I'm usually one to defend the BBC against a lot of the flak it gets, but this is just plain stupid. Archiving these sites should be a matter of maybe an hour's work each, at most.
- Isotope
Tech bollocks. JS (specifically, jQuery, my new best friend) library for doing all sorts of very nice layout/sorting tricks. Bound to be handy.
- Woke Up, Got Out of Bed, Dragged a Comb Across My Head – morning routine food | Ask MetaFilter
I have been reflecting of late that I could do with adjusting my morning routine a bit. A lot of what's in here is moderately standard hippy crap, but the annoying thing is that I know quite a lot of it works, if one sticks to it. So I should probably get on that.
- To us, it's an obscure shift of tax law. To the City, it's the heist of the century
If you live in the UK, stop what you're doing and read this, assuming you haven't already. This is somewhere between absurd and terrifying, and I simply don't understand how anyone in Cameron's position can contemplate it. Well, I do, but the only way it makes sense to me is active malice and contempt for other people, which is a motivation I find hard to ascribe to any human being.
