Stop the hate everyone! Creativity shouldn’t depend on the technology used.
I absolutely love this article by “A List Apart” published over a month ago:
It’s entitled “Flash Standards: The Cold War of the Web” read the full article here
A List Apart states regarding the debate between design with HTML5 and website design with flash — is that the issue is larger than which one is better. It’s about preference and politics.
Read the entire article it’s a great read — almost 90% of the way through it they write a part about “people”. It goes on to say “People matter. Not users, but people. A user is a faceless entity, robotically performing tasks that we test and optimize. A person lives, laughs, cries, loves, hates—and uses the sites and applications we make…”
Twitter announced that they will be making money off their millions of users. With 140-character Promoted Tweets. They appear when users search for keywords that advertisers have paid for in exchange for showing their ads. Twitter will show its users the Promoted Tweets based on those tweets’ relevance to each Twitter user.
No doubt Apple is a king of the product launch! and this week we have seen a ton of great press around the iPad — but we all know this market will flood with competition. Already a few touchscreen tablets exist, however the design seems to be weaker than Apple’s – while still chock full of the things the iPad lacks: multitasking, SD card slot, web-cam, Flash support and a USB cable port.
HP has something in this category that is rumored to hit the streets in June at a price of 599 for the 64 gig model.
It’s called Slate! and it looks awesome, check the video below.
