While I was editing my new web site template, I used a tool for the Mac from Cultured Code called Xyle Scope.



It's a pretty nifty little (and fairly inexpensive) tool for looking at CSS code rendered in web pages. You'll easily find that you can find out how objects on your page map to your CSS styles. This little app can be a major time saver if you're doing a lot of web development. I've been using it under the 10 day eval period, and I think it's good enough to buy.

If you recall, Cultured Code is the company behind Things, which I raved about last month.

I'm one of those process geeks who is a wee bit particular in terms of how I like to organize my to-do items. I've never liked the Tasks features in Outlook or any other app, for that matter



Enter Things for the Mac. It is currently available as a free preview (full release should be in Spring '08), and it is one beautiful piece of software. It is simple, elegant and highly functional. I'm not quite sure that I could write up a description that does the product justice - all I can do is suggest that you download the preview and watch the screencast available on Cultured Code's web site. If you sign up for the newsletter before the release, you can get a small discount on the software.

While I think highly of the preview version, I'd like to see additional support for Windows, Windows Mobile and iPhone. There are a lot of us who work in Windows during the day but use Mac at home, and to be able to sync between the platforms would be an incredibly valuable feature.
