More and more i get requests to create websites that run on all platforms, pc’s, tablets and smartphones. And a smart way of doing that is to create responsive designs. This blogpost is not about how to create responsive designs. I’ll write about that in the near future. For now i just want to share a little safari toolbar plugin i created. The Responsive webpage resizer. A small nifty toolbar for your safari browser to test your webpage in the most common layouts.

If you have some suggestions please let me know! For now please enjoy and let me know what you think!

Download the plugin here

Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it’s really how it works.

The new iPhone is one big disappointment

As you probably noticed Apple announced the new iPhone. This makes an end to all speculations. Where people including myself thought it would be an all new designed iPhone5, Apple came with just an upgraded iPhone4. I must admit at first I was a bit disappointed. And it wasn’t just me. But when you look just beyond the “old” jacket you’ll see it’s so much more then just another iPhone4.

Besides a new operating system (iOS5) there are some awesome new features. One of them is Siri. But don’t forget the new camera. 8mega pixels, optical zoom, 1080 HD video camera and software to stabilize your video, an A5 chip for better and much quicker performance. Maybe you’re on of the disappointed people. In that case take a look at this video & specifications. After that you’re sold as well.
