The SitePoint Forums community has recently organized a CSS website design competition called The Beauty of Style, very much in the style of CSS Zen Garden. If you’re thinking of taking part, sorry, the submission date is over, and judging is currently in progress.
You can take a look at the submitted entries though. Some of them are very good, like Crispy, Zanzibar, Lichen, SP Style and The Box (slightly broken in Mozilla).

From atog: found this very interesting keyboard spinner with code (in Java) posted. I tried it out and it works! There’s a hypnotic effect watching the lights flashing.

Most visited entries:
Other interesting stuff:
- For some unknown reason, pages from http://blog.codefront.net/ were unlisted on Google for a few weeks. They have started to re-appear in the recent major Google update. Why did they disappear? Some possible reasons I thought of:
- my DNS not working correctly for a time: there was a time when DNS stopped working from several locations, but my host promptly resolved this.
- my updating of blog pages from HTML to .php pages: not likely, but the site did stop being listed almost immediately after I did the switch.
- I’m finding redemption in a blog has made a few people’s blogrolls and feed subscriptions (like Bloglines. Who are you people? C’mon introduce yourselves and let me have a peek into why you read my weblog :).
Until next month, and thanks for reading!
