Hey folks,

Since the past couple of years,  internet is available on a multiplicity of devices, with different screen size & interaction (click, gestures,…). Web designers, Programmers, have to deal with this constraint in order to assure the client that his website is viewable AND usable in the best condition whatever the terminal.

Now with CSS3, and mediaqueries requests, it is possible to declare a stylesheet format for each device, so when the user is viewing your  website from a smartphone, the content is adapted to the screen.

In order to start your next web design, you might find inspiration at http://mediaqueri.es/. This is a good site where you will find a great selection of websites using  media queries.

Have a great week !

QR Codes….wikipedia mode|on| :”A QR Code is a specific matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code), readable by dedicated QR barcode readers and camera phones. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background. The information encoded can be text, URL or other data.”

For a few years now, you might have seen one of those weird black & white logotypes at the bottom of an ad (pics). This is a QR CODE. Tt allows any Smartphone user with the proper application (download QR reader, it’s free) to access special contents provided by the advertiser. So the next time you see a QR code next to an announcement, get ready to draw your Smartphone!!
