Few weeks ago, a post at WRD was sharing the "Free Vector Chart Icons" that included pie, column, line, area charts & a meter.
As there are very few free chart icons on the web, the creative team at IconShock improved the set with 5 more icons.

The set contains doughnut, organization, radar charts, a thermometer & data analysis icons.
It is totally free to use them in both personal & commercial projects.

P.S. The icons can not be distributed on any other media. Please link to this page if you share it on your website, thanks for that.

Web Font Specimen is a project by Tim Brown of Nice Web Type, for seeing how a typeface renders in browsers.
It is simply a well-prepared HTML/CSS setup that displays most important elements like headings, lists, text in different colors/sizes, emphasis of them & more.

The download comes with the Georgia set by default & new typefaces can be configured by updating the CSS file.
Considering every font is becoming a web font with @font-face & web designers will probably be purchasing more fonts, analyzing how the font will be rendered becomes more important.

TinyTable, a lightweight JavaScript table sorter that was featured before, has its 3rd version released.
The new version has fresh features like: search, column averages and totals, record numbering, a view all & a reset function.

TinyTable also has features like:
-
alternate row highlighting
-
header class toggling
-
auto data type recognition
-
selective column sorting
Almost every feature is optional & can be configured while calling the TinyTable function.
Since using tables is still the best option to display tabular data, it is a must-bookmark.

The Fluid Grid System is a CSS framework which combines the principals of the typographic & baseline grid into a resolution-independent one.
It has a comprehensive logic. The classes are mentioned like: six_column section or three column which makes it easier to use & understand.

With the simple layout & use of CSS, the Fluid Grid System degrades well in both older web browsers, scales with text nicely & presents content to screen readers in a logical manner as well.
The framework is also great for rapid prototyping besides final production layouts as designers can quickly design complex layouts.
