Misc Nerdery Monday

• Pure CSS Speech Bubbles - surprisingly simple markup for something that would have required loads of images not even a year ago.
• Rapportive Replaces Ads with Contacts - Tech company Rapportive has created a gmail plugin that replaces the text ads in the sidebar of an email with web-content specific media specific to that person. I'm actually surprised this isn't a violation of gMail Terms of Service but based on reports from friends that are running this - it works as reported, no hangups.
