CITY PUBLICITY
City Publicity was a fun site to put together. It included alot of image manipulation code (fun!), a blog, many video clips and an Admin section so the client could update the site easily.
The site ultimately ended up with a very slick design that was very minimal but still carried a classy and sophisticated vibe to it. All in all...a win!
Modernizr and Why I'm Gonna Start Using It
Posted on: Jan 21, 2011
Modernizr is a sort of HTML5 framework, well not really. It's goal is to see what your browser is capable and serving up the fun sexy stuff to the fancy browsers and serve up the more mundane features to the older browsers (ie. Internet Explorer).
The great thing about this is that you don't need to make special stylesheets or use javascript to check browser compatibility. Modernizr just ads a few classes to the body of your page, then you parse the page with those classes.
Haven't got hot and heavy with it yet but it seems pretty cool, and anything that lessens limitations is good in my book!
