Five really good Christmas movies

After Thanksgiving is over, my attention immediately shifts to Christmas. One of my favorite things to do this time of year is to watch some quality Christmas-themed movies. In the spirit of the holidays, I've compiled a list of a few of my all time favorites.

The best way to clear floats

When working with HTML and CSS, I always want to find the best technique for solving a certain problem and use it every time. This philosophy can be very frustrating when the solution to certain problems is rather ambiguous, or certain problems can be solved in multiple ways, each with their own drawbacks. Using CSS to clear floats is a great example of a problem with many solutions, none of which is absolutely ideal.

Six excellent Halloween movies

I watch quite a few movies, and with Halloween right around the corner, my film watching is completely monopolized by the scary movie genre for about a month and a half leading up until the big night. I thought it would be good to talk about some of my favorite scary movies. If you have not seen some of these movies, head over to Netflix or your local DVD rental store *shudder*, and get them to your house as soon as you can.

Now featuring Django 1.0

After quite a bit of effort and trolling around on Django's google groups, I've finally migrated my website to use Django 1.0. This is outwardly a very small change and if I did the transition properly, no one should have even noticed. The main benefit that I see from this is not having to worry as much about backwards compatibility as Django moves forward.
