The team at Viddler has just launched a new code generating system called Viddler Vidgets. It allows you to easily create an HTML / Javascript page showing your videos in a number of formats.
As you can see by my example below, I was able to quickly create a collection of 20 of my videos which had the ‘coffee’ tag. Very cool stuff.

My favorite new Windows application has been updated. Launchy now indexes your Firefox favorites, allows you to type in web urls, and even has a built in calculator. Awesome!

What are your Must Have Apps for Windows XP? Taking a cue from Web Worker Daily, I’ll post mine here.

Often times when I receive someone else’s Photoshop file that has guides in it, I find the guides are not snapped to the edge of the pixel. To avoid this, simply hold the Shift key when you drag a guide onto the canvas. Doing so will cause the guide to snap to each pixel. If you didn’t know, you can drag guides by pulling them from the Ruler.
I was seriously going to write a short little article about non destructive Photoshop editing this week, but despite my best efforts I didn’t have the time. And then someone went and wrote this great article and so I’ll just link there.
