It would seem that one of the developers on the Safari project at Apple is publishing a blog to tell people exactly what is going into the WebKit in future releases and even affording people commentary on this.

Personally, I have to admit that I think that Apple is doing this entirely correctly.

First off they release a browser with a bug button so you can submit a page that doesn’t render correctly back to the developers to figure out what’s wrong.

Then, they announce that the app is really just a wrapper for the HTML render engine and that the render engine is a developable API for anyone on the platform.

Now, there’s the blog. So I know that in the new release (1.1) there is:
1.1 features

Okay… I cheated… alot.

I was trying to find 10 people in L.A. I know and was trying to see if I could get no tricksters. It wasn’t easy. I had to eliminate people I wanted on the list (including shimmeringjemmy who kept taking all my candy and giving me socks.)

Cribbed from a post by sinangel

Take the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society:
SaniTest: How Insane Are You?

Your score is:119

For easier understanding, the HPLHS SaniTest assessment algorithm converts your raw score to a scale of 1 to 10. This number is your INSANITY INDEX.

INSANITY INDEX 6.43 Your SaniTest(TM) score indicates that you are utterly haywire. Your neural circuitry seems to be badly misfiring, with frightening and/or hilarious effects. You may find yourself capable of superhuman strength as a side effect, but don’t count on it. Others who scored at this level include entertainer Wayne Newton and skateboarding legend Tony Hawk.

Last week, well okay… 6 days ago I introduced the GuestMap which I had cribbed from coryphella.

Sadly, shortly after setting it up and posting, their site went down.

As promised I have moved the GuestMap badge into the right side of my main journal page in the Net Badges section. Give it a whirl… I do suggest, however, zooming in to place your icon. Also, the flag does not preempt the chosen icon, it adds it in as if to say, “Hi, I’m from X”

Rock on….
