Initializr a quick Html 5 site template
I was playing with eclipse orion today and it suggested using Initializr to start a page. Although I still don't have orion working I want to comment on Initializer.
It's awesome. It's easy. It's great if you just want something fast. Check it out. http://initializr.com/

LinkPost – Jan through April 2010
It's that time again. The time when I make good on those promises of finally posting all the backed up LinkPosts . The first quarter of this year has been fairly amazing, Google has started to include speed in page-ranking, jQuery released 1.4, and css3 is starting to build some serious momentum. There are links to all of that and more in this massive LinkPost
