What goes wrong with CSS

Thu, 24 Nov 2011 08:34:00 -0800

CSS grows with site size. Depending on your site, this can be a serious issue — not just for performance, but because CSS is code. More code tends to lead to more problems — maintaining code size is a serious concern. CSS best practices encourage what would otherwise be bad programming: repetition, bad grouping, loose coupling. Again, if you treat CSS as code that needs to be maintained, reviewed, and refactored, these are negatives. CSS is often contextually unreadable. For...

Scalable and Modular Architecture for CSS

Sat, 01 Oct 2011 11:44:00 -0700

SMACSS (pronounced "smacks") is more style guide than rigid framework. There's no library within here for you to download or install. SMACSS is a way to examine your design process and as a way to fit those rigid frameworks into a flexible thought process. It's an attempt to document a consistent approach to site development when using CSS. And really, who isn't building a site with CSS these days?! Feel free to take this in its entirety or use only the parts that work best for you. Or don't...

The Kindle Fire, Unveiled

Sat, 01 Oct 2011 08:25:00 -0700

via techcrunch.com Will this be marked as the end of paper books? Will this invite future iPad market? No one knows. As the device is being priced at $199, I'm sure it'll become a big hit. I quoted below Amazon's CEO, Jeff Bezos, letter which can be found in their website. There are two types of companies: those that work hard to charge customers more, and those that work hard to charge customers less. Both approaches can work. We are firmly in the second camp. We are building...

Brogramming at work

Thu, 22 Sep 2011 09:13:00 -0700

MJ and I tried brogramming at work. Maybe this is the effect of too much caffeine and sugar-free Red Bull intake. Caught up brogramming again. Thanks to Raymund Tuquero for this capture. Permalink | Leave a comment »

Our Best Practices Are Killing Us

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 10:02:00 -0700

Our Best Practices Are Killing Us via Slideshare For years, we have been suffering with the myth that if we just tried harder, our CSS would stay clean. Each time we start a new project, we valiantly follow best practices and commit ourselves to writing beautiful code. Then, a few months into the project, we're once again faced with a mess. Maybe it was the contractor who committed crappy code? The project manager who would never give us time to refactor? The truth is that our best practices...

Mon, 20 Jun 2011 09:09:00 -0700

Alright! For this time around, we our cover is My Hero from Foo Fighters. I personally posted this one 'coz our lead guitarist, Ego, is proud enough to share this at Facebook, however rough it sounds. As I have observed, our later session gets better and better. I believe, with constant practice and a lot more sessions, we can produce even better and improved and cleaner covers. So listen to the cover above and enjoy. Thanks. On a sidenote: I'm still not...

See the full gallery on Posterous Finally bought a Kindle 3 for myself. Just wanna share with you how I unboxed this toy. So why I decided to get one? It all happened when I saw one of my colleagues tinkering on his Kindle. I found out that he bought one for his kids. I've borrowed the device for awhile and found it to be interesting. Then I ask: "Where did you bought this?" He said: "From one of the malls at Causeway, Jurong. There's a computer shop in there." And since I was amazed at it,...

Jam Session: Rage Against the Machine - Bulls on Parade (Cover)

Tue, 08 Mar 2011 08:27:00 -0800

I was on the back seat and made the video coverage during the heart-pumping "Bulls on Parade" by "Rage Against the Machine" cover we had. This time, Jay Carreon, was on vocals who delivered the song very well. The amazing guy who scratched the guitars was Ego Faylona. Jed Hatamos and Mathew Wong rendered very well on drums and bass respectively. Great jam guys. Permalink | Leave a comment »

I'm indexed in Google

Sat, 22 Jan 2011 10:04:00 -0800

2 days ago, me and my colleagues were creating mark-up and jQuery functionality implementing dynamic HTML modals with "iframe" in it. Doing the mark-up I've decided to use www.google.com as the value to the attribute "src" in the "iframe" tag. While testing and doing some searches, I tried searching my name. I keyed in the characters of my name and surprisingly Google automatically suggests. Hoowahhhh... Awesome. Will this make me happy? Definitely. Lots of smile....
