When can I use...

"Compatibility tables for features in HTML5, CSS3, SVG and other upcoming web technologies" - This is an interactive page that quickly shows you what's supported in various browsers. Funny to see that absolutely nothing is "ready" until at least IE6 expires.

Thin Text in Safari

"Safari has a not-so-lovely way of bulking up text using sub-pixel rendering". I think we've all noticed this. The article shows a useful webkit CSS property to change the stroke of text.

Modernizr

"Modernizr is a small and simple JavaScript library that helps you take advantage of emerging web technologies (CSS3, HTML 5) while still maintaining a fine level of control over older browsers that may not yet support these new technologies. Modernizr uses feature detection to test the current browser against upcoming features like rgba(), border-radius, CSS Transitions and many more. These are currently being implemented across browsers and with Modernizr you can start using them right now, with an easy way to control the fallbacks for browsers that don’t yet support them."

Object-Oriented CSS: What, How, and Why

"It sounds like an oxymoron, or at least an impossibility, doesn't it? How can a static language that's really more like markup than programming be object-oriented?

I Love Typography

"ILT was born from a desire to bring the subject of Typography to the masses. All too often, articles on typography are rather bland and, although informative, do little to elicit feelings of wow. So, ILT is designed to inspire its readers, to make people more aware of the typography that’s around them."
