Cool CSS Tidbits
I don't have an employer who pays for my continuing education, I have to purposely set aside time to keep up to date on my industry. It takes hours each week to keep up on what's new, but that's part of what separates us from the rest of the pack.
One of the blogs I read is Smashing Magazine. The posts are (sometimes incredibly) long, but they're usually topical: one post might be nothing but different ways to design/code the same thing. That's very helpful for designers, who often look for inspiration in a sea of 'just like the other one' websites.
For those of you who make/edit/design/hack your own websites, here's a good article showcasing some of the recent advances in CSS: Powerful CSS Techniques.
I bookmark some of these articles in a folder called "Design Bits", and for others I simply paste the code I like into my default stylesheet. I'm particularly impressed with the code that allows for opacity for all browsers. I've been waiting for that one for a long time!
