How to use .htaccess 301 redirect?
To prevent getting 404 File Not Found error (traffic coming from links, bookmarks and search engines), .htaccess redirect is better than the meta refresh or redirect tag because there is no delay as the browser reads the .htaccess file first.
Go to your site's root folder (public_html or www), download the .htaccess file to your local computer and edit it with a plain-text editor.
If you are using FTP Client software and you don't see any .htaccess file ... » Read more...

The odds are against you no matter the idea and statistics say you are going to fail a few times on your road to success. Knowing this, you have to hedge your bets more effectively so you can adjust your path and continue forward.

As technology changes, design changes to adapt. Consider screen resolutions over time. In the past decade, designs have moved from accommodating 640 x 480 (still over 10% of users in 2000) to 800 x 600, and now to at least 1024 x 768 pixels (with around 75% of users having higher resolutions).In the same time period, the physical size of displays has also generally increased but now includes a lot more variety.

Apple has a long relationship with Adobe. In fact, we met Adobe’s founders when they were in their proverbial garage. Apple was their first big customer, adopting their Postscript language for our new Laserwriter printer. Apple invested in Adobe and owned around 20% of the company for many years. The two companies worked closely together to pioneer desktop publishing and there were many good times. Since that golden era, the companies have grown apart.

Speaker: Scott Berkun
Taken from the “From Business to Buttons” Conference, Scott Berkun talks about design failure and its causes. Sometimes it’s problems in our design process or how we carry it out that cause failure. But in many cases, it’s the other stuff, the non-design stuff, the business stuff that causes failure. Scott argues the need to consider these other aspects — pitching ideas, learning to talk the language of business, and so on — as design problems too.
