Bubble Tooltips are an easy way to add (via a bit of CSS and javascript) fancy tooltips with a balloon shape to any web page. They operate this way:
- A check for DOM support is performed
- If found, the title and href attributes of links are extracted from the page and they’re injected into a DOM structure
- When the mouse is rolled over a link, the related tooltip (styled with CSS) is displayed
Bubble Tooltips are unobtrosive and for browsers with bad DOM support or javascript disabled, the plain title of links will be displayed. Compatibility is quite good: they’ve been tested with success in IE5, IE5.5 and IE6 on Win, Opera 8.5, Safari 2.0 and Firefox 1.5.
Requirements: Internet Explorer 5.0+, Opera 8.5+, Safari 2.0+, Firefox 1.5+

They encourage webmasters to “please try the following at home,” this is by no means an exhaustive list for your website’s security. The list is useful, but they recommend that you conduct more thorough research as well.
Nathan Johns said
“In recent months, there’s been a noticeable increase in the number of compromised websites around the web. One explanation is that people are resorting to hacking sites in order to distribute malware or attempt to spam search results. Regardless of the reason, it’s a great time for all of us to review helpful webmaster security tips.”

One of the reasons for starting I Love Typography was that the author felt there just wasn’t enough being said about the topic. Secondly, and more significantly, He always found it difficult to quickly locate typographic resources. The long-term aim of this blog is to be such a resource, a one-stop-shop for everything about typography, from terminology to new typefaces, from inspirational examples of type to choosing the best font for the job, whether that be on- or off-line.
I think I Love Typography is a really excellent blog about fonts. The author has a really in depth knowledge about fonts and typefaces, and how to use them correctly. You can get a lot of information about typography in this blog. His latest article of 15 Excellent Examples of Web Typography is so interesting as well.

Use the form on the homepage to enter your website, your keyword phrases and your competitors to receive a report about the marketing effectiveness of your website.
WebAppers has a website grade of 96 means that of the thousands of websites that have previously been submitted to the tool, the algorithm has calculated that WebAppers scores higher than 96% of them in terms of its marketing effectiveness. It also stated that Permanent Redirect Not Found. I have got the following suggestion.
“Search engines often regard www.webappers.com and webappers.com as two different websites unless you take specific measures to signal to them that they are the same site.
The best way to handle this situation is to setup what is known as a permanent redirect (or a “301” redirect) from one of these sites to the other. This way, any links that are pointing to the secondary site benefit the primary site, from an SEO perspective.”
What is your website grade?
