The concept is simple.. every two weeks we feature 7 new visual artists on the wall and on opening night we have an open discussion where the seven artists explain the vision of their work and another seven creatives respond to their art work through a poetic or musical expression.
The theme of this show is Creative DIVERSITY.

If you are looking at getting started to webdesign , or if you just want to tinker around with your own pages , then you are going to need some tools to do that . I have compiled a list of some free software that will help you on your journey to "Dreaming in Code" ( it's what we code slingers do , lol ) Anyways , to start you will need an html editor .
First up we have SoThink Html Editor . I first started usign this back in the day when it was known as Cute Html , or something like that . anyways , this editor is a WYSIWYG ( what you see is what you get ) editor. It has alot of great features for a free program . In fact , it has some features that you wont find in software that you pay for. You can import your own javascript , or even create your own via the user friendly interface . It can be a little intimidating at first , but once you get the hang of it , then you will even steven . The only downside to this , is since it's free , you can only edit one document at a time . The next Editor is Kompozer . This editor is built off of some of the same framework that is used in the Mozilla and Firefox web brower. It is a very robust editor . Very , very intuitive .And as an added bonus , alot of the addons that you use on Mozilla Firefox browser , can also be installed to even add more usability. Of Course , if you don't want to commit downloading software onto your computer , then another alternative ais to use an online html editor. Some of them are very robust , and some are for people well versed in html coding . Here is a small list that I have compiled .
- Real-time HTML Editor
- Online-HTML Editor ( my personal fav)
- Online HTML Editor 2
And of course as technology , and coding changes so will the software . This is not a complete list , but rather than bore you with a long laundry list of HTML editors , I narrowed it down to a few choices that I think are good for those of you starting out .
Anways , stay tuned for the next post where I will be discussing Image Editing Software , and there uses for Web Design .

But what do we need faster connections for ???
Next generation apps: "We want to see what developers and users can do with ultra high-speeds, whether it’s creating new bandwidth-intensive “killer apps” and services, or other uses we can’t yet imagine.
* New deployment techniques: We’ll test new ways to build fiber networks, and to help inform and support deployments elsewhere, we’ll share key lessons learned with the world.
* Openness and choice: We’ll operate an “open access” network, giving users the choice of multiple service providers. And consistent with ourpast advocacy, we’ll manage our network in an open, non-discriminatory and transparent way.
Is Google doing too much ? Google Reader, Gmail, Blogger, Buzz !, and of course , Google is now going to be the sole retailer of The Nexus One Phone ( which by the way looks like the shit , but I love my G1 android , so meeh , lol ) .
I used be a huge Yahoo fan , but as the years passed , my love affair with the cheesy interface has wained for the more option ridden , iGoogle interface . In anycase , that was my rant for the day , lol …
