Sorry about the broken links
So something seems to be up with short permalinks and more likely Queued posts in Tumblr. I’m seeing a lot of strangeness in my Queue so I’m casting an eye in that direction.

kuroir: Screencast of the new feature added to the SCSS Textmate Bundle: the XHTML to SCSS. Sorry for my engrish. Just watching how well kuroir works with the Zen Coding expansion bundle is impressive on it’s own, but then to see what his new feature does, blows it out of the water.

Mario "Kuroir" Ricalde: SASS is CSS on Steroids →
Ever since I began learning CSS back in 2003, I remember asking myself why didn’t it provide basic mathematical operators. Seven years later, I still ask myself that question.
