What the Heck is Shadow DOM? Browser developers realized that coding the appearance and behavior of HTML elements completely by hand is a) hard and b) silly. So they sort of cheated. They created a boundary between what you, the Web developer can reach and what’s considered implementation details, thus inaccessible to you. The browser however, can traipse across this boundary at will.

I recalled a few of the Flickrazzi's who post the "how-to's" of their
daily lives. For example,
7-how-7 works for a production company that produces blow-up dolls for the
entertainment film and commercial industry (via
BoingBoing today),
underbunny works as a mortician,
rickenbacker documents his life in fast food, and then there's a variety of active duty military folk who are documenting the mundane "over there", like
ob1left,
nevadog,
At Ease,
Doc Torres,
enlisted cowboy,
Nukeit1,
JeffG,
Luodanli, and the
homsar. But if blogging at work can be bad, than I'm sure taking photos at work and sharing them with the interweb HAS to be worse.

Bush Junta: A Field Guide to Corruption in Government - A substantial visual document (200 pages of comics from Fantagraphics, fact-checked with an extensive bibliography; the link goes to a number of sample pages) on the Bush Dynasty, from its beginnings benefitting off of Hitler and WW2 (that entire piece, which is printed in english, is posted in its original dutch online
here), to the Bush's connection to Reagan's assassination, CIA and Iran-Contra, ending with the unsettling origins and profiles of the current administration. A great election primer, featuring comics and art by Steve Brodner, Ralph Steadman, Spain Rodriguez and many others. (
