How About a Good Deal
This morning on the KRON news I saw two shopping search engines that you may find useful:
Cairo helps you to find the best deal in town. Enter your zip code and the item that you’re looking to buy and Cairo will search for sales in your area for that item. It will even display a thumbnail of the newspaper ad that the item was found in. If it can’t locate the exact item, it will display similar items.
Become is search engine to help you make informed purchasing decisions. It searches buying guides, articles, forums, reviews, specs and information from across the web to help you buy the right product. This looks great for finding reviews on the digital camera or other electronic product you may be searching for.
Speaking of search engines, you can find out the latest offerings from Google at the Google Blog. If searching still has you frustrated, try my Google Search Tutorial.

I just took a look at the Complete CSS Tutorial. I wouldn’t recommend it. It may represent practices five years ago, but it is far from today’s best practices.
The terminology is incorrect, too. To begin, “selector” is sometimes confused with “rule”. And some terms are decidedly archaic. I mean, “layers”? That comes from Netscape 4 – a concept Netscape itself abandoned years ago.
The article on “divitis” is useful. Sadly, the world’s favorite browser does not understand many of the advanced selectors shown in the article.
I checked the “Famous Logos” fonts at Dafont. Enron’s “crooked E” is missing!

Thanks, David. I removed the link, I should have investigated the site more.
