Tumblr 101: Tips And Tricks To Get Started
IE9 Developer Preview 6 launched, and new Test Drive site now live
Not only is Developer Preview 6 now available (don't get too excited, non-developers; this is another UI-less build), but there's also a ton of new demos that you can try out. A few of you might recognise SVG Helicopter, and Flickr Postcards is quite possibly the cutest application of HTML5 and CSS3 that I've ever seen.
For more info on Preview 6, check the full release notes.
As you can see in the screenshot above, there's a rather cute easter egg for Chrome 8 users, too!

The Chrome 8 easter egg is interesting and surprising to say the least.

3.Create a folder on your Desktop called IE9_PP6
4.Copy the iexplore.exe file from the C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer directory (or C:/Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer if you are on a 64 bit machine) to the IE9_PP6 folder
5.Create a folder inside IE9_PP6 called iexplore.exe.local (Note: It is imperative that you name this folder exactly as specified)
6.Navigate to the Internet Explorer Platform Preview directory within Program files (commonly on 32 bit machines this will be at C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer Platform Preview and on 64 bit machines this will be at C:/Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer Platform Preview)
7.Copy the contents of the iepreview.exe.local folder within the Internet Explorer Platform Preview directory to the iexplore.exe.local folder within IE9_PP6
8.Close all instances of IE running on your machine and run iexplore.exe from IE9_PP6
