Album of the Week - The Fourth Season

The Fourth Season Vanishing Point The Fourth Season is the latest offering from Australian metal act Vanishing Point and was released in 2007. I had never heard of these guys until they opened for Iron Maiden on their recent tour. I was very impressed by the show they put on and immediately went looking for this album.

Handy little jQuery audio player

Not too long ago I needed an audio player for a client. The thing about this player was that it had already been designed. I found this handy little jQuery audio player which suited my needs perfectly. It is called jPlayer and can be found over at Happyworm. The plugin comes with a large range of options including playlist and autoplay features. It also supports ogg and mp3 files. The best part about it though is that it is 100% completely css-able so you can seamlessly integrate it into (...)
