RSS Feed Notes
I was checking out my RSS feeds and noticed that my code examples weren't looking good. I'll be updating the RSS feed this weekend, hopefully by having code examples display in a <pre> instead of a <textarea> (textarea needed for the Syntax Highlighter on the site). I also noticed that there's an issue with images I put in my posts when the image SRC's aren't explicitly set to my domain.
Expect to see some resolution this weekend.
I've also added a FeedBurner feed for comments, which you can subscribe to at:

![CSS Counters]()
Counters. They were a staple of the Geocities / early web scene that many of us "older" developers grew up with; a feature then, the butt of web jokes now. CSS has implemented its own type of counter, one more sane and straight-forward than the ole...
