TypeKit acquired by Adobe

We think this could be great news for the way websites look. Adobe, maker of Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat and all things that allow us to be visually creative on the web and in print, has acquired TypeKit, the people who allowed us to make website text look less like websites and more like artistic creations.

Beanstalk version control

When we’re developing websites, small or large, it’s important to ensure work is backed up and to manage versions. By checking in work often, if we need to go back to a previous version of the code then we can simply rollback to a previous version. We’ve been using Beanstalk for version control for some [...]

Microsoft “Moving the world off IE6″

OK this has been going round for a while, but we’re pleased to see Microsoft are encouraging users to upgrade their web browsers from the long out of date IE6. The campaign website www.theie6countdown.com says it’s dedicated to seeing usage of IE6 drop below 1% worldwide. And that makes us very happy. We spend a [...]

Get inventive with WordPress

We spend more of our time than ever now working on WordPress website development. There’s so many things you can do with WordPress than just simply blogging.

Technology will be at the forefront of reporting the event, from Twitter and YouTube to Google Earth [...]

We want… A new Commodore 64?

Yes, that’s right. There’s a new PC coming out, made in the shape of 80s favourite, the Commodore 64. And not only is everything within the box but it also has an emulator that means you can play all your old favourite games on it too. Read more about it at PC World – this [...]

Angry Birds is a winner

So Angry Birds won best game at the Appy Awards on Monday. We’re glad to hear it. It’s a very addictive game which we’ve even been found playing on an iPad at Dixons, Stansted Airport waiting for a flight. And for 59p (in the UK) it’s got to be one of the best value iPhone [...]

Firefox 4 / IE9 browser updates

This year we’ve seen updates to both Internet Explorer and Firefox (OK, Opera and Safari updated too). IE9 is only available to newer versions of Windows – our XP machine is left as is to test for IE6 issues. And that’s another issue – 4 possible versions of Internet Explorer all in current use. Wired [...]
