I'd like to mention Touch Punch, a js library that you can use to add drag-and-drop functionality to mobile devices.
If you are using jQuery and jQueryUI, just add Touch Punch and it works like a charm.
The URL to get it is: http://touchpunch.furf.com/

Good tool for web designers
I'd like to give a shout out to subtlepatterns.com.
Like the name says, they feature subtle patterns that you can use as background images for web pages. I've been really impressed with the site so far - a good selection and it's easy to navigate and use. And it's free!

HTML5 Slideshow Tutorial
I've just posted another tutorial for budding HTML5 programmers.
This tutorial shows you how to create a slideshow interface for a webpage. You will learn HTML5 basics along the way (javascript/css/jquery). It's good for beginners and will probably take 1-2 hours to work through and understand.
The tutorial is here: http://flashbynight.com/tutes/slideshow/
A sample of what you will build is here: http://flashbynight.com/tutes/slideshow/example

Anarchist thought of 1882
I love leafing through historical docs and digging up their strange ideas.
In this 1882 edition of an anarchist newsletter, the Democratic Party is told off for supporting the woman's right to vote. Anarchists opposing the woman's vote? Strange but true:
"Time brings queer changes. The Democratic party, heretofore supposed to be the bitterest foe of woman suffrage, has embodied it in its platform in Massachusetts, and even declared unequivocally in favor of woman's equality with man in the broadest sense. If the Democratic party ever gives woman the ballot, it will be the most unselfish deed ever done by a political organization, for it will amount to nothing less than suicide. Immediately woman gets the right to vote, she will use it to thwart and overturn every principle that a follower of Jefferson is supposed to believe in. She will vote for prohibition against free rum, for protection against free trade, for a State religion against free thought, for Comstockism against a free press, for indissoluble marriage against free love, and for greenbackism against free money; in short, she will do nearly everything that is outrageous and tyrannical and absurd. For, even to a greater extent than the men, she believes that all wrongs can be set right by statute. It will be a cold day for Liberty when woman takes the reins of power."
