Photoshop CS6 Beta is now available for free download (with a limited-time usage license), and offers some awesome new features, not the least of which is 3D image editing (which will only be available in Photoshop CS6 Extended). Designers will be excited about new design tools, including type styles, custom strokes, dashed lines, and even searchable layers! The Mercury Graphics Engine gives you unprecedented performance for near-instant results with many filters.
Kartograph
Kartograph is a new framework for building interactive map applications without Google Maps or any other mapping service. It was created with the needs of designers and data journalists in mind.
The core concept of Kartograph is to separate the mapping process in the map generation and map rendering part. The client-side library kartograph.js renders pre-generated maps stored in SVG files. You can chose among hundrets of ready-to-use maps or simply generate your own using kartograph.py, the open source Python SVG map generator.
If you’re using the Chrome dev channel or the WebKit Nightlies, you might have noticed this already: previously, when you clicked the colored square on the left of a color code in the WebKit Inspector, it used to cycle through different color formats. That’s still possible when you shift-click it, but a regular click will now spawn a color picker.
