There are an ever-increasing number of devices with different screen resolutions to take into account with a responsive design, so we put together a simple but handy diagram that lists the most common device widths as of the present, along with overlays for potential device width ranges. A big shout out to creative partner Sisu for the inspiration to put this together.

While preparing for my talk at Codemania I started filling my slides with links, clearly not something that scales. So, instead, here is a big list of interesting tools and resources that can help you journey through the murky waters of web performance.

In the following example we are going to setup a simple web server to serve our static web pages to explain the basics. The daemon will load a few mime include files, compress outgoing data in real time and set the expires header to reduce bandwidth of client cached traffic. Full logging is on, in the default Apache format with the addition of compressed file size and the amount of time the server took to fulfill the request. Finally, we are going to set up restriction filters by ip to limit access to the "/secure" directory structure where you might put more sensitive non-public data.

It's not surprising that the tracking debate had people up in arms. A Pew Internet study, conducted just before Google combined its privacy policies (and after it rolled out personalized search results in Search Plus Your World) found that three quarters of people don't want their search results tracked, and two thirds don't even want them personalized based on prior history.

AWS, which most people think of as EC2 computing and S3 storage but actually contains a dozen or more cloud-based services, has become a quick and easy way to bring new Internet services to market with little or no capital by launching them on AWS and paying with a credit card. But given that Amazon is hosting all these new companies it shouldn’t be at all surprising that the company has learned a lot from that hosting experience and may covet some of these new businesses.

One day I’m sure everyone will routinely collect all sorts of data about themselves. But because I’ve been interested in data for a very long time, I started doing this long ago. I actually assumed lots of other people were doing it too, but apparently they were not. And so now I have what is probably one of the world’s largest collections of personal data.

“SMACSS is becoming one of the most useful contributions to front-end discussions in years” *
I’ve been analyzing my process (and the process of those around me) and figuring out how best to structure code for projects on a larger scale. What I've found is a process that works equally well for sites small and large.

"PHP is most often used in combination with a Web server, to dynamically generate Web site pages. However, this Web server interface isn't the only way to use PHP, because the PHP distribution also includes a command-line interface which can be used to run PHP programs at the command prompt, much like Perl or bash.
