We all know the state global economy is in, budgets are being cut, people are being let go, and there is not much some of us can do about it. But what you can do, is get ready for the worst, and with Innovative Resume you can do just that, and do it in style.

Uni-Form Voted Best Innovative Form by OFIA

Dragan — Tue, 05 May 2009 18:03:19 GMT

We understand things have been very quiet here lately, we’ve been ridiculously busy and we will soon be able to show you some new stuff we’ve been working on.

That, however is not the reason we’re dusting the old blog; today Matthew Solle informed me that Uni-Form has been voted the best innovative form by OFIA! How awesome is that?! (The answer is super awesome in case you couldn’t guess.)

Online Form Innovation Awards have a purpose to showcase best practices when it comes to online forms and build a reference library for all the people who are interested in learning, understanding and sharing knowledge on that topic.

Currently they are awarding three categories in form design:

WInner — Huffduffer for their sign-up form, which is truly amazing and one of those “dammit, how didn’t I think of that before them?!” things
Loser — Google for their clunky sign-up form
Innovator — Uni-Form for an attempt to standardise form markup

I’d like to thank Matthew and the rest of the OFIA crew (Luke Wroblewski is one of the judges, woot!) Also I want to officially (and once more) apologize for the slow progress of Uni-Form. A lot of stuff has been happening (both personal and business-wise) and I promise, promise, that I will bring some of those ideas I have been jotting down to reality soon.

Also I’d like to point you to some of the Uni-Form implementations¹ that I am aware of that might help you in your upcoming project:

Ruby On Rails plugin by Marcus Irven, there’s also a patch for it by xiaobozzz
Cold Fusion tag library by Matt Quackenbush
Django-Uni-Form by Daniel Greenfeld

Thank you all for your support so far, cheers.

If you’re good with JavaScript and jQuery and would like to help out with Uni-Form, feel free to contact me.

¹ Feel free to hit me up if you’ve been working on something with Uni-Form so I can add you to the list.

Internet Explorer 6—Bye, Bye, It's Never Been a Fun Ride

We said it before, and we’re saying it again—support of Internet Explorer 6 should be ignored by Web developers and designers by now.

Nailing Your "About" Page

Recently we asked our Twitter followers what’s the first thing they do once they get to a Website for the first time, and got exactly the answers we were hoping we’d get — thanks to all of you who @replied by the way!

Our Contact Forms

Dragan — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 05:08:21 GMT

It seems that our contact forms are acting up again. We apologize to all who may have written to us via the contact form or the questionnaire since January 1st, because by the looks of it we may have not gotten your email. We’ve had complaints from people that we didn’t answer emails, when actually those emails never arrived to our inboxes. If you haven’t gotten a response regarding your RFP or something else, please consider resending your enquiry. Again, we’re very sorry about the mess.
