Webtape
Laid down in complaint XHTML and CSS, the user facing end of webtape allows for easy navigation through posts and pages.
Integration with Facebook (via the JS Client Library) allows for users to comment on posts with their
Facebook accounts. Javascript animation and XHR requests are routed through the beautiful Object Oriented MooTools framework.
Content is pulled from shared links to display Flickr photos, YouTube (Vimeo & Viddler)
videos and Digg buttons inline on the site. Relationships between users are solidified using the
XFN microformat.

"this day in history." Users are asked to have a post (photo,blog,link or video) per day so they can look back on

Future Proof is a blog that keeps readers in the know with what is current and just around the bend in web developemnt.

YUI Modal Window
This is a plugin/class or the YUI javascript library that builds a cross-browser (IE6!) modal widow (a lightbox) for
external content. The cool thing about mine is that you can set an expiration date so it won't show past
a certain day. You can also set it to open by default or not.

Good Taste gives users the chance to share their recipes and compose weekly menus. The awesome thing about it is that it will compare what food you currently have to the ingredients needed for your menu. Everything you don't have is thrown into a grocery list for you to take Registered users have the ability to upload recipes and compose weekly menus from recipes already added.
