-prefix-free →
Break free from CSS prefix hell! -prefix-free lets you use only unprefixed CSS properties everywhere. It works behind the scenes, adding the current browser’s prefix to any CSS code, only when it’s needed.

DropKick.js →
Painless custom dropdowns, a jQuery joint. That’s not all. DropKick also degrades gracefully: if the user has javascript disabled everything will continue as normal using your regular <select> elements. Also works on IE7+.

Macro Bees
“Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants” according to Wikipedia, but this time I just wanted to share a couple of photos taken with my Nikkor 60mm F/2.8G Micro lens. This is probably the best “me absolutely not a photographer” could ever do. In general, nothing impressive so far.
