HTML5Rocks - Google launches the largest HTML5 showcase
See that new “HTML5Rocks” logo? I made it spin using CSS3 (mouse-over it) - and you may not know that CSS3 is the very close sister to HTML5, and usually never leaves its side. Over the last 5 months, HTML5 and CSS3 have been gaining major ground, and have begun to earn their place as viable web technologies.
Here at T3ch H3lp, we use CSS3 for almost every core aesthetic function of our site, but we have yet to dip our feet into HTML5, which is starting to get us excited. Luckily, Google has recently launched the new “HTML5Rocks” website, which has more goodies than any snobby web designer can shake a stick at.

Google Voice is now open to US residence - no invite neededGoogle has opened their super useful “Voice” service to the public today, and I imagine quite a few people are excited. Google updated their blog post very recently to mention that “Google Voice is still limited to everyone in the U.S. for now,” but I’m sure that the flood gates will open up sooner than later.

Download - F.lux Reduces Eye Strain from Monitor Glow
I’m a night owl by nature - ever since I started working back when I was a teenager I’ve always gravitated to work that keeps me up at night, and T3chh3lp is no different. So naturally, each night I’m that guy that you know with his face staring deep into a brightly lit computer screen in a dark room. Needless to say, it can cause some heavy amounts of eye strain when I’m doing massive amounts of writing, editing and proofing for hours. Enter f.lux, the application that automatically uses a timer to transition the temperature of your screen accordingly to make using a computer late into the night a more comfortable experience for your eyes.
