Stuff...

This subsite on mahesha.com is dedicated to some fun stuff I do for recreation. The design of this subsite itself is an example of that. It came out of my attempt at learning how to make menus using just CSS.

To access interesting stuff on this site, use the menu on the left (the >> sign). Mind you, this will work only on browsers that have a decent support for W3C standards.

My attempt at getting to know AJAX. It is a kind of News Aggregator that grabs RSS feeds that I use the most. It's not at all customizable or extensible - that was not the goal anyway

Another shot at AJAX expanding on the Feed reader developed for News That Matters - only this collects feeds from a handful of 'Deals' sites. It also has a quick search feature that allows you to look for a keyword in the list of deals without having to get the entire list everytime you change the keyword

This is a perl script inspired by the situation presented by Al. It pulls out colors used in a collection of CSS files and presents them in form of swatches. You can get a pretty good idea of the color scheme being used
