			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4>Auto Resize jQuery Plugin</h4>
<p>I really like Facebooks implementation of automatic expanding textareas. This <a href="http://james.padolsey.com/javascript/jquery-plugin-autoresize/">auto resize plugin for jQuery</a> helps you add that neat usable effect to your forms.</p>
<h4>Typography on the web</h4>
<p>Smashing Magazine has a really good <a href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/01/27/css-typographic-tools-and-techniques/">list of resources for web typography</a>.</p>
<h4>API for Location based on IP</h4>
<p>I think we have only seen the beginning of location-based web-apps. This little <a href="http://geoip.pidgets.com/">GeoIP-API</a> helps you geographically locate your visitors.</p>
<h4>Screen Scraping with CSS Selectors</h4>
<p>This <a href="http://simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/">Simple HTML DOM Parser written in PHP</a> makes it easy for you to screen scrape content. For all jQuery and CSS selector fanatics out there, it will be great news for you that it supports CSS Selectors and it supports invalid HTML (if it wouldnt it would be pretty useless).</p>
<h4>How to create a leaner User Interface</h4>
<p>There is <a href="http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009/02/7-interface-design-techniques-to-simplify-and-de-clutter-your-interfaces/">a good list on Webdesigner Depot</a> about different techniques you could use in order to de-clutter your user interface.</p>
<h4>Library Independent JavaScript</h4>
<p>I found <a href="http://james.padolsey.com/javascript/a-framework-agnostic-model/">this article by James Padolsey</a> interesting, because I think it is a growing problem. People tend to write jQuery, Prototype now a days, not JavaScript, this is ok for me, but when you are building something that other people will maintain and develop it may be interesting to try to find a development model that are framework agnostic. James has some examples in this article how to create an absctraction on top of your favorite javascript library.</p>
<h4>Free Database for IP to Country</h4>
<p>Maxmind has<a href="http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecountry"> free databases for retrieving country and city</a> from the users IP-address. I am using this on a number of websites and believe it is a very good tool for creating more usable web sites and easier to target (and split) advertising.</p>
<h4>One Trillion Dollars</h4>
<p>One trillion dollars is a lot of money. <a href="http://www.pagetutor.com/trillion/index.html">This article shows you how much it is in real life</a> in volume. Amazing.</p>
<p>Do you have more links I should share or look at? <a href="http://twitter.com/hising">Follow me on Twitter</a> and share your favorite links.</p>
