Not completely positive, but it looks like Sam of wvs.topleftpixel.com got hacked today. The site is redirecting to http://nike.hmdnsgroup.com/~samtimes/archive which then frames in http://news.stcom.net/index.php, which appears to be a site calling itself “The Voice of the Oppressed”. stcom.net appears to be registered to a group in London.

Looks like it happened sometime between Sam’s last posting around 2:00 AM EDT and now (11:00 AM EDT). I don’t know how to get in touch with Sam, but if anyone does, please let him know. Granted, if he’s awake, he probably already knows…

The Canon 5D is so ridiculously hot. I was going to head down to the Canon expo tomorrow to try one out in person, but due to some time constraints with work (big meeting tomorrow afternoon), I’m going to have to skip it. The conference goes on until the 16th, so maybe I’ll head down on Friday… If I do, I’ll report back.

Anyone in the area want to tag along? I had to sign up for it, but you may still be able to score a spot. Let me know if interested…

Just discovered that if you try to assign to the innerHTML property of a <p> tag in Internet Explorer 6, IE bombs out. If you change it to a <div>, it works just fine. Either a p or a div works great in Firefox. Check out my sample to see if you see the same behavior. Clicking on the link should load some HTML and shove it into the p (on top) and the div (on the bottom).

What do you see?

This editorial made my week. Well put.

With fall almost upon us, it’s time to start watching those leaves change. If you’re a serious leaf peeper, here’s a site that tracks the fall colors as the season progresses.
