Rather than doing lots of small blog posts, thought I would start to round up some interesting new of the day. So I present to you, the first instalment of "A few interesting items crossed my email / browser / rss feeds today":

• Microsoft Expression Web Superviewer allows you to view a web page in different version of IE on the one screen
• Fully patched Mac OSX + Safari was hacked within a few seconds! Seems like IE8 and Firefox got hacked as well, just took a little longer
• VSDL2 looks interesting, and is looking to be rolled out in Australia soon. Have read that you need 6 (!) phones tho.
• I knew it wouldn't be long, but looks like the ACMA blacklist is out and available for public viewing (funny, Wikileaks on Google is ranked 6th, while on Live its 2nd, and on Yahoo its number 1)
• As I posted earlier today, I really love the Google Chrome Experiments. Az asked, is it encroaching on the OS space? Add the new Chrome Extensions as well, hmmm.
• Old skool geekness - I need to look at architecting a MASSIVE existing ColdFusion (like OLD ColdFusion, like when it was just a scripting language!) site into something else (thinking .NET and MVC at the moment) but I don't like having to install other IDEs just to get descent code highlighting (I already have a few, but Visual Studio 2008 is by far the best). So I found this little trick = Open Visual Studio 2008, click Tools / Options / Text Editor / File Extensions and add a new one for .cfm files and map it to the XML Editor - DONE!
