A small collection of CSS tricks with shadows.

First, from Harry Roberts, a clean way to do that loverly ribbon thing that has been so popular the last few years. Uses images, but the markup is muy simple. Also links to a pure-html+css way of accomplishing same but involves a lot of HTML5 wrappage.

Second, from Nicholas Gallagher, we have an overview of creating different, subtle effects with drop shadows, from curled corners to single horizontal folds.

Last, from Dustin Cartwright, we have a little toy keyboard. It’s not useful, but it sure is cool.

Thanks, fellas!

"CSS" text-rendering property

text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; I did not know about this. It triggers kerning pairs and ligatures for more readable and beautiful text. It turns out not to be part of any current CSS standard, but is apparently supported by the big three modern browsers.
