Because I do a lot of work with WordPress Core, I find myself using terminal all the time for svn management and various other things. In order to make this mundane terminal window not make me depressed, I skinned it to make it fit my style better and make me happy when I use it. Here it is:
Bumbling around in WordPress. My pretty terminal theme makes it all better!
So, If you want to use this style for your terminal download it here.
The BostonGlobe.com recently launched a new responsive site! its beautiful thanks to the collaboration of the filament group and the globe.
Below is an awesome video they made about the design and development process and includes some technical talk about the use of media queries as well as starting big then simplifying rather than the reverse process of progressive enhancement. Interesting video for sure!
"Adapted": a great article by SimpleBits about modifying an existing site (dribbble.com) to be mobile responsive.
Here's the video recording of my talk at WordCamp San Francisco that I gave on Responsive Web Design. Lots of talk about Twenty Eleven, WordPress, and Media Queries. Enjoy!

A brief description/rant:
Q. What can be more exciting than your content being viewed in the very best manner possible?
A. Your content being viewed in the very best manner possible on any device!
Enter Responsive Web Design. A topic that is very near and dear to my heart. Why? Because it is important. We actually have the ability to make our site closer to perfect on every device. Why wouldn't we?
No matter how you're accessing your content, it should be functional, readable, and consumable. No more device hinderance! No more pinching, squinting, and scrolling when not appropriate. No more trying to drag and swipe and having it not work as expected. We are in control. We can finagle and cry and tweak and cry and get angry until our content is perfect everywhere.
