CSS3 @font-face browser support table

It’s time for a CSS3 @font-face browser support table. One that documents specifically how browsers act when either the whole font family is specified (regular, italic, bold, bold-italic & small-caps) or only the regular version of the font is specified. The test-case that this based on uses the ideal, easiest (laziest) implementation and can be found on its own page here.

Refreshed Candy

Just a quick note to commemorate a design refresh of this site. Have been looking for ways to create separate attention for main text and the sidebar. Can’t say I haven’t been inspired by Jon Hicks (and others) who has also just implemented a differing-colour-main-part-with-border on his site. Kept the main nav in the middle, to add ugliness give the design a quirky edge. If I have time to put the search-bar up top the nav may be able to move over to the left.
