SuzanneTop Mistakes That Turn Website Design Worthless

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

A website design means to attract and involve online users and finally give them good reasons to purchase the products and services available on the websites. A badly designed websites fails to achieve the above-mentioned goals for a business website.

Reason behind the bad web design is the selection of an inexperienced website design company. A good web design and website development company takes care of things that turn a website design bad. Some of the common mistakes that lead to useless website design, but taken care of by an expert website design.

Distracting Backgrounds-
Backgrounds are meant the professional backdrop to a website that can attract the online users and involve them. A bad website design has background that distracts or displeases the visitors and makes the text difficult to read. Moreover, the images used a backgrounds make the websites difficult to load.

Inappropriate Text Style-
For the visitors, the information displayed on a website is the best medium to know about it. A badly designed website has font too small or too big to read out. Underlines and bolded paragraphs and use of italics too frequently too make the website design bad.

Use of Animations-
Animations are not meant to be used excessively in a website design. These blinking text and animations often steal the efficacy of a website. And an expert web design company makes less use of such features so that a website has professional look and feel.

Interrupting Music-
Most disastrous aspects of a website design is the ‘Background Music’. The automatic music played in loops and on every web page is definitely a part of the bad web design. It reduces the interest of online users in your website.

No HTML Validation-
HTML validation is an important thing to do with a website design. It needs proper validation as without it, your website has fewer chances to get indexed in the search engine results. Moreover, such websites have slow loading pages.

NaggieMoonlight 3.0 preview offered for rich Internet apps

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Moonlight 3.0 that puts Microsoft’s Silverlight rich Internet plug-in software on Linux and UNIX platforms is now being offered in an alpha release, according to Web pages from the Mono project, which has jurisdiction over Moonlight.

Silverlight Moonlight 3.0 preview offered for rich Internet apps

Novell, which sponsors Mono, said the release features infrastructural capabilities designed to move Moonlight closer to the capabilities of Silverlight 3.

Novell VP Miguel de Icaza, who has been in charge of Moonlight and Mono projects, described the release as the first preview of Moonlight 3.0 in a blog posted this week.

Capabilities include MP4 demuxer support, although there are no codecs for it yet unless a developer builds them from source code and configures Moonlight to pick up codecs from ffmpeg.

Also featured is initial work on UI virtualization and a platform abstraction layer. The Moonlight core is now separated from the windowing system engine. This should make it possible for developers to port Moonlight that are not X11/Gtk+-centric, according to de Icaza.

The alpha release features 3.0 Binding/Binding Expression support and updates to APIs. An SVN (Subversion) of Silverlight 3.0 offers pixel shader support from developer David Reveman.

A beta version of Moonlight 3.0 is due this summer, followed by a final release in the fall, according to Novell. A download page for Moonlight 3.0 stresses that the project is only in an alpha stage and offers caution.

According to the page, this release should be considered alpha quality. There are various new subsystems in Silverlight 3 which expose new and different attack vectors, and the implementations of these subsystems have not yet been exercised or audited.

The page recommends that one should use this plugin on trusted sites on non-production computers. This situation will gradually evolve over the beta releases. According to the page, an up- to-date overview of Moonlight security features status can be found on Moonlight Security Status wiki page.

NaggieChina Tablet PC Maker May Sue Apple Over IPad Design

ipad touch cover China Tablet PC Maker May Sue Apple Over IPad Design

A Chinese company, selling a tablet PC like Apple’s newly announced iPad, may sue the US Company over the similar design between the devices, said the company Monday.

Last Year, Shenzhen Great Loong Brother Industrial started selling its P88 tablet and is not ruling out a lawsuit against Apple, a company representative surnamed Wu said by phone.

The company is based in a southern Chinese city known for producing knock-off phones, which are called “shanzhai,” or “bandit” phones, and sometimes takes the form of counterfeit iPhones or other popular handsets.

According to Wu, we are not shanzhai for these things, because we were first.

The P88 weighs more than the iPad and has much shorter battery life at just over one hour during active use, compared to Apple’s stated battery life of 10 hours for the iPad. But both devices use touchscreens that have a black border and a similar size, at 10.2 inches for the P88 and 9.7 inches for the iPad. Wu said his company’s tablet is sold in the U.S., but declined to say at which outlets.

No immediate comment was returned from an Apple’s spokeswoman.

China’s gray market for electronic devices also reacted quickly to Apple’s announcement of the iPad last week. Some users on Taobao.com, a Chinese auction and retail site, are taking pre-orders for iPads they will first obtain in Hong Kong or elsewhere. Popular devices such as the iPhone or the Hero from Taiwan’s High Tech Computer (HTC) are often brought into China informally and sold there online or at electronics bazaars.

Apple has not yet cleared that if the iPad will be sold in China. Local carrier China Unicom started selling the iPhone last year, but gray-market versions of the device were already widely sold in China.

And according to Japanese electronics company Fujitsu, it owns the rights to the name “iPad,” raising another possible legal challenge for the Apple device.
