Devote:ee

The Devote:ee website is my favorite ExpressionEngine hangout. The site centralizes ExpressionEngine modules/plugins/extensions/accessories in one location and gives developers and easy way to buy addons. Not all addons are represented on the site but it is by far the most comprehensive list anywhere on the web.

New Tools

I tend to take a ton of screen captures as a programmer and have tried a number of tools that have been okay but not great.

The latest software I'm trying is Jing which installs on PC and Mac. So far I'm liking it a lot. You can capture the screen or capture a video of what's happening on the screen. Once the capture renders, you have the option of adding text, arrows or highlights, then can share via screencast.com, save it or copy it to your clipboard.

HTML5 & CSS3 Readiness

As I'm sure you've heard, Steve Jobs has been beating the drum about HTML5 as the standard of the future. I know of one Flash coders who's a little worried... I'm personally not convinced that Flash is dead. It serves a specific purpose that HTML5 and jQuery won't be able to fill 100%. Also, big brands love the "story" they can tell with Flash.

So the question is, how many HTML5 features are supported by today’s web browser?
