Just reading about HAML 2.0. Man. I wish I wasn’t packing up for a move. I wanna play with it! Suffice it to say, I’m more of a SASS junkie than a HAML fiend, and the new SASS 2.0 features alone are enough to make me salivate.
Mix-ins is by far my favorite new feature in SASS 2.0. Now you can write chunks of reusable code:
=clearfix
display: inline-block
&:after
content: "."
height: 0
clear: both
visibility: hidden
* html &
height: 1px
… And place it within whatever rule you like
#sidebar
+clearfix
border: 1px solid black
Talk about leaner, meaner and more productive. Holy crap!
I’ll be rejiggering the SASS grid generator in SASS 2.0 in the next few weeks. I also have a new SASS project underway for when I have more time, SASS 2.0 will play an integral part in making it all work… without tipping my hand too much, it involves color schemes.
I have extended my initial SASS grid to work with the Blueprint grid library. Now I can leverage the Blueprint grid in a completely SASSy way.
Please refer to Blueprint CSS for instructions and tutorials on how to use the grid.
Feel free to download, use, distribute and modify my work as you like.

I just noticed this and thought it was more noteworthy to my blog than to Twitter;
If you go to the non-www westernunion.com, it does not load. It just sits there and eventually times out at the DNS level without sending a 404 message. This is by far one of the worst cases of poor canonicalization I’ve ever seen. Obviously it’s not hurting their ranking, but still — I would be horribly embarrassed if I was the website manager.
