Can’t read the light text on Daring Fireball‘s dark background? Me either. And now you don’t have to.

Snowball is a simple jQuery bookmarklet that tries to lighten the mood a little. It works best on Daring Fireball, but also works anywhere else on the web. Basically, it makes the text dark and the background light. Easy as that.

The list of selectors is incomplete, but I’ll be adding to them as I go. If you come across a site that Snowball doesn’t work on, just send me a note and I’ll add it in. When I make a change, you won’t need to do anything. The selector will be ready to use next time you need it.

Matthew Byrne is a fantastic local musician. We worked together over the past few weeks to create a site that we hoped add a modern twist to traditional music websites.

The site was made with WordPress, and features the HTML5 theme, Toolbox from Automattic,  Backstretch, a jQuery plugin from Scott Robbin, and photos from me.

Matthew’s site was featured on Design Fridge and The Best Designs the day after it launched.

If you’re unfamiliar with Matthew’s work, be sure to check out The Banks of Newfoundland—my personal favourite—on the music page.

Captain Bookmarks started the day it was announced that Yahoo was closing Delicious. Instead of relying on fleeting 3rd parties to manage our bookmarks, I thought there was a better way: just use WordPress, a tool you already know how to use.

Through the Captain Bookmarks site, I’ll be releasing new themes to hold all your bookmarks! As a start, check out Treasure Island.
