This is a different take on Responsive Web design. This article discusses how we can better embrace what the Web is about by ignoring the big elephant in the room; that is, how we can rely on media queries and breakpoints without any concern for devices. 2 Let’s start our journey by looking at the online tools such as Responsive Design Testing , Responsive.is , Responsinator and BriCSS . These pages let people check websites through a set of pre-built views based on various device sizes or orientations. http://www.smashingmagazine.com/

pearltrees

This is not a paid advertisement! I don’t know the creators and have not invested in their start-up (though if it ever goes public, I’ll consider investing). I discovered this tool just a few days ago: the more people use it and contribute to it, the better it will become. A group of French entrepreneurs, headed by Patrice Lamothe as CEO, launched Pearltrees this spring. It is still in alpha mode, but it rocks. So what is Pearltrees? http://interculturalzone.lokahi-interactive.com/2009/11/26/pearltrees-organize-visualize-and-share-your-web/

http://www.ubergizmo.com/2009/04/pearltrees-visual-mapping-of-the-web/ Pearltrees was in private beta until last month, and I had a demo with the co-founders last week. This innovative Web 2.0 app allows web users to build visual “maps” that organize web pages visually using “pearls” within a tree structure, see the picture above. Via a browser add-on, internet users can transform their daily browsing experience into a visual “pearl tree” and share it with other Pearltrees members. I like the concept a lot but it needs some user interface improvements, such as allowing actions from a contextual menu: delete, add as friend, play the map, explore neighborhood (and more) should be accessible with a right click. Moving pearls around is easy (drag and drop) but the overall navigation could be improved. Keep in mind that this application is still in early stage and the team is releasing new features and updates regularly.
