Apple and Flash and HTML5 | Flash not dead

By Evan Mullins | Published: March 25, 2010

By Evan Mullins | Published: March 9, 2010

    By Evan Mullins on May 23, 2012

    Proposals in the works for new media queries specific to touch enabled devices. Examples include pointer, which will differentiate wether the device has a fine or coarse pointer (finger vs mouse) and hover, which would say if the device supports hover states. I can see this being helpful and useful for building mobile friendly sites [...]

    WordPress updates plugin directory

    By Evan Mullins on May 21, 2012

    New additions to the plugin directory include: favorites, incorporating support forums into it's own tab for each plugin as well as support stats being displayed! Great! I think we also need the ability to give plugins ratings and reviews (bonus points if it can be done from within a wordpress admin dashboard when installing plugins). [...]

    A great developer story about the differences on what Git is vs other version control and what Git is not. This is how we should learn it. I heard over and over that it was distributed, but never grasped what that meant, so here are a few links and explanations that will help unlearn version [...]

    Tweening Lib comes to Javascript!

    By Evan Mullins on May 16, 2012

    I'm very excited to share the news that the tween library from GreenSock (hands down the best tweening library I used in flash) is not ported for use in javascript! This will be great!
