Browser Wars A New Hope

February 19, 2012

On multiple occasions I see blog and forum posts from front-end web developers that make statements such as, "I don't support IE6" or "I only support the latest versions of browsers".

I often wonder why? Is it because you have enough client work that you can choose to not take on clients whose browser list doesn't support the latest and greatest in HTML5 & CSS3. Or is it something else? Are you too new to the profession that you can't debug older versions of Internet Explorer. Are you just so full of yourself that you think you're too good to work hard for your money?

Pardon My Mess

October 01, 2011

Pardon the state of this site, which is currently a hot mess. I'm in the process of redesigning my website as well as writing content. The new site will primarily be a portfolio site with the occasional blog post usually about the web design industry. The plan is to also post the occasion screencast that will cover the basics of JavaScript initially and then we'll see where it goes from there.
