Setting up a Keynote document for grid layout design

I like (love ?) Keynote because it

is a simple to use presentation software,
is vector based (when zooming it just looks gorgeous)
exports to powerpoint

If I could remove that last argument, I would, but the fact is that, as a consultant, the final document is almost always expected to be a powerpoint document. Don't ask me why, it is just so. I am fighting against it but I did not win the battle so far ...

Trello CSS Guide

“I perfectly understand our CSS. I never have any issues with cascading rules. I never have to use !important or inline styles. Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?

Screencasting Framework

The following document is a written account of the Code School screencasting framework. It should be used as a reference of the accompanying screencast on the topic.

Why you should care about screencasting?

You're probably aren't going to take the time to read this document if you're not interested, but there are a lot of nice side effects caused by learning how to create quality screencasts.

Communicating more effectively - At Envy Labs we produce screencasts for our clients all the time. Whether it's demoing a new feature or for a presentation for an invester, they're often much more effective and pleasent than a phone call or screen sharing.

	# This filter changes all words to Title Caps, and attempts to be clever
	# about uncapitalizing small words like a/an/the in the input.
	#
	# The list of "small words" which are not capped comes from
	# the New York Times Manual of Style, plus 'vs' and 'v'.
