Feature 1: Evolving Mobile Sites
- Analysis of recent trends: Flash Lite, location information, and AR -
Now that flat rates for packets are the norm for cell phones, it’s said that more than 90% of phones have Flash Lite capability. Mobile sites have gone from playing a supplementary role as light versions of PC sites, to becoming full fledged hubs of information. This feature focuses on the newest mobile sites that represent the next stage in mobile web design. It also gives advice on content planning and production that takes user behavior into account. If you plan to break into mobile site production or would like to build upon your current site, this feature is for you.
Feature 2: Web Designers Report 2009
- Nine years in the running! Reports from the largest questionnaire in the industry -
It’s that time of the year again, and Web Designers Report is back in its ninth year of analyzing the job of web designing through numbers and graphs. Here are some of the questions we’ll answer: What hours do your colleagues work? How much do they make? What kind of studying do they do? What technology are they excited about? How happy are people with their work?
In preparation for the upcoming “100th Issue of Web Designing”, we will look back on past data and learn from history to better understand the current state of the job. Read this feature for a bird’s eye view of the industry and a chance to reflect upon your own work.
