I’ve got 3 GoogleVoice invites up for grabs for commenters. If you’ve got an Android phone, this is a bonus, because it integrates beautifully with GoogleVoice.

And, GV just announced that you can use your current number and reap the benefits without having to give out another number to your friends and family.

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

I’ve got 5 free Typekit invites to give away. (comment to win)

What is it you say?

Allows you to set custom fonts on your web sites without intrusive markup or the use of clever work arounds (such as sIFR).

Simply add the <script> tags provided, pick your font, and add it to any CSS selector on your site.

Awesome.

Just post a comment and don’t forget to include your email ;)

UPDATE: I’ve got two left, get ‘em while they’re hot!

Greasemonkey in your Face[book]

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009

I’ve created a little Greasemonkey script that will remove the useless sidebar in Facebook. Turn your FB home page from this:

to this:

First, to accomplish this you will need 3 things: Firefox, Greasemonkey add-on, My Facebook Greasemonkey script.
If you haven’t used Greasemonkey before here is a little primer: How to use Greasemonkey.

To enable the sidebar just click on the monkey icon in the bottom right hand side of FF and reload the page, then you will be able to see the anoying sidebar in all its glory again.

This script is very, very basic, I will probably add to it as I see fit, but it is extremely simplified at the moment. Tweak as you wish, and if you want to explore more Facebook Greasemonkey scripts, or for a lot of other sites, you can find more here.
