Google Chrome, Google’s Browser Project
“Google Chrome is Google’s open source browser project. As rumored before under the name of “Google Browser”, this will be based on the existing rendering engine Webkit. Furthermore, it will include Google’s Gears project.”

I said it would happen
So you may remember earlier this summer I wrote a post about Alexa Web ranking, and how it seems WordPress is perfect for SEO. In that post I mention “If I can make it to rank# 2.5 million by year end I’ll be tickled purple.”
Well, look at where I am today: 
Yes that says 1,000,497… EDIT: I am now at #909,921
I have a new goal… I vow to reach rank # 500,000 (or lower) by year end. If you would like to help me, you could do so by:
- commenting in my blog with a link back to your own site
- link to my site from your own blogroll (and I will link back, promise!) and
- google search my name (eswhy, sean yeomans) a couple of times.
As it stands, my site has leaped 4 Million Rank Positions in JUST OVER A MONTH!!!
neat stuff.

Why? Do you really want to do everything yourself?
oh… you do.
I think we can all agree we’re beyond the point where we need to explain what CMSs are and why anyone would want one. There is a huge pile of tools and systems being built, modded, distributed freely, sold fairly or otherwise, from home brew to corporate stewed. Couple this with the evangelizing from all camps, our burgeoning techno-rotic nerd machinations have grown into entire cosms of internationally co-operative community efforts.

I love how lighting is simulated by using black and a light colour. it takes some fiddling but you can get some really amazing organic looking patterns.
I’m including the workfile also so you can see how I made it. Let me know what you think. Maybe even get the program and try some of your own, it’s fun.

A neat Mac only Fractal generator, this little app lets you manipulate a fractal pattern in real time. It takes practice but once you get the hang of what size, rotation and relation does, you can come up with some neat patterns. Somewhat organic looking, and of course some of you will poo poo its limitations, but give it a try anyways.
Some images I made, and hey, they’re HUGE!
