For those of you out there that might still be new to the world of web design, CSS (or otherwise known as Cascading Style Sheets) can be a laborious thing to master.  Thankfully, I have found one online tool that will help you teach yourself how to write and use CSS.

CSSTXT is a simple site that allows you to create a CSS style around any block of text.

Always remember to read through the terms of use for each site, as each web site has it’s own rules for usage (such as “only for non-commercial use” or something to that effect).  If you know of any more good ones, be sure to share!

Over the past couple of months, I have been having a fun time keeping up with my link of the day list on the Lunarpages forums. Then, it hit me (like a frying pan from a disgruntled significant other) that I could share these links with all of you! Here are a collection of links that will definitely (at least a few of them) make your life better.

InstaPaper!

This awesome site replaced my “read later” bookmark folder in Firefox. Using a simple bookmarklet, you can save any link to read later and the site itself gives you a neat list of links and the ability to “skip” (mark it read) or to mark the link unread. Very simple, and because of that, very effective.
