If you haven’t registered for WWDC, early bird registration (save $300) has been extended until May 9th. Possibly as a sign they haven’t got enough people registered as going to WWDC yet? Always nice if they can announce record attendance figures

Now available is a 3D Beers of the World Screensaver.Somewhere I must dig out those photos from WWDC in 2000(?) of a G4 Guinness beer tap with the Hypercard stack that allowed you to opt for a fast or a slow pour.

Ars Technica finds Safari 3 wanting, both from a UI and a security perspective.Joel (On Software) looks at Font smoothing, anti-aliasing and sub-pixel rendering across the Mac and Windows platforms.Also on the text rendering front, codinghorror. Personally, looking at it on the dodgy PC CRT monitor at work it definitely looks fuzzy all over (almost to the point of being unusable), although I haven’t yet tried the preferences to tone down the aliasing.

Ars Technica have photos from the independent developers’ party. Wow, random people I ran into at parties last year are actually known entities :)MacSlash reports that there’s a new keynote Bingo form available for download. Or you could repurpose this drinking game from the Macworld SF Keynote.
