I stand on the shoulders of others, and they haven’t yet complained about my shoemarks. To that end, I think it fitting to include some thank-yous, and hopefully increase their Google Page Ranking as well :-)<\/p>\n

Fonts Used<\/h2>\n

This site uses the fonts Graublau Sans Web regular and bold<\/a> by FDI fonts.info<\/a>, CP Mono<\/a> by Liquitype<\/a> and Droid Sans<\/a> by Ascender Corporation<\/a>. I’d like to thank these font foundries for making these fonts legal for me to embed in my site free-of-charge.<\/p>\n

Software Used<\/h2>\n

This site uses WordPress<\/a> blogging software. Image editing is done with The GIMP<\/a> editing software, and HTML is created by hand with the assistance of the Aptana IDE<\/a>. The fonts were converted with my own CSS3 Font Converter<\/a>, which uses FontForge<\/a>, sfnt2woff<\/a>, Batik<\/a> and Readable Web\u2019s<\/a> EOTFast<\/a>, and FontForge<\/a> to do the heavy lifting.\u00a0 If I happen to be running Windows at the time, I run it with Cygwin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All of this software is open source and free to download.<\/p>\n

JavaScript Libraries<\/h2>\n

Unless otherwise stated, all JavaScripts used on this site were created by me, and are available under the MIT License<\/a>. Although not required, I would be really happy if you send me any changes you make to my code so that I can learn from the additions made.<\/p>\n

Last, but certainly not least.<\/h2>\n

This blog would never have been created had it not been for Sandy Law<\/strong> (a.k.a. naive<\/code>), a long time coworker and friend. We would share with each other new web technology information, and she would always encourage me to share the information I had more publicly. I always said I would get to it eventually but I never did. When she passed away prematurely in 2009, I thought this would be a perfect project in which to keep her memory alive.<\/p>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
