Hey everyone,

Wanted to share an article I wrote this week that I really find interesting. I talk about how mobile web is taking over and why having the right web design is crucial. Let me know what you think!

Yeah, that's definitely an issue today. Mobile versions of sites are definitely a nice thing, especially on phones with small screens.

I couldn't believe how many ways of setting up a website there are now.  I was digging out my dreamweaver notes from 10 years ago when a friend of mine pointed me in the right direction!

I have a netbook with medium size screen, yet there is many site I can't properly navigate because of website size (no workaround as things fall outside the screen)... it's a general issue, not mobile only

Yeah, same here. It's really stupid - I'm wondering if the average webdesigner only designs for his own laptop, which is a macbook with retina display and lots of spare CPU cycles to run Photoshop... or websites.

These guys should get a netbook just to test their stuff.

Chrome -> Settings -> Privacy -> Plugins -> Only load plugins when I select them Smiley

Interesting topic, have to read through that one carefully.
