Best of Design 2010

Best of Design 2010
As 2010 is wrapping up, it is about time do a sum up of the best sites that I've featured on Best Web Gallery. Again I've selected 50 sites from different categories: personal blog, commercial, agency, portfolio, and software. In 2010, CSS design is getting more interactive. People are using jQuery and CSS animation to add interaction in their design. More designers are using custom font faces. Some have incorporated responsive web design using media query. 20 Things I Learned Jax Sven Prim Future of Web Design Stephen Caver Version Teixido Pictory Riot Industries Brizk The Many Faces of Tobias Ahlin Haus Nike Snowboarding Living Principles Forever Heavy Christoph Zillgens Foundation Six Cargo Collective Mobile Roadie Donq 37 Signals Courier Rainy Pixels Simo Analog Veerle Kaleidoscope Joyent Hicksdesign Marie Catribs dConstruct Buffalo Galp Lost World's Fairs Fiell Image Mechanics Infinvision Grand People Crush Lovely Rokkan Cutler Yaron Schoen Cloud 365 Chirp Colly Mercy

Link : Neal Poole » Reports from Google’s Vulnerability Reward Program Over the past several weeks, I’ve been an active participant in Google’s Web Vulnerability Reward Program. I’ve been writing blog posts about each of the vulnerabilities I’ve reported, publishing them once I’m told that the vulnerability has been patched. I’ve also been keeping up with posts that others have written and submitted to places like /r/netsec, /r/xss, and Hacker News. Thus, the idea for this post came into being. Let me know what you think in the comments! Update (12/21/2010): The comments have spoken and I’ve added a new vulnerability to the list. Update 2 (12/21/2010): Adding another vulnerability that I reported to the list. Update 3 (1/6/2011): fb1h2s emailed me about a vulnerability he reported. Update 4 (1/27/2011): We have another vulnerability report submitted via the comments. Update 5 (2/3/2011): Five new reports have been added to the list, all of them XSS vulnerabilities! Update 6 (3/4/2011): Three new reports have been added to the list.

Logo A logo (abbr. of logotype,[1] from Greek: λόγος logos - word, idea + Greek: τύπος typos - imprint, picture) is a graphic mark or emblem commonly used by commercial enterprises, organizations and even individuals to aid and promote instant public recognition. Logos are either purely graphic (symbols/icons) or are composed of the name of the organization (a logotype or wordmark). History[edit] Numerous inventions and techniques have contributed to the contemporary logo, including cylinder seals (c.2300 BCE), coins (c.600 BCE),[3][4] trans-cultural diffusion of logographic languages, coats of arms,[5] watermarks, silver hallmarks and the development of printing technology. As the industrial revolution converted western societies from agrarian to industrial in the 18th and 19th centuries, photography and lithography contributed to the boom of an advertising industry that integrated typography and imagery together on the page. The First logo to be trademarked was the Bass red triangle in 1876

25 Inspiring Examples of Sign-Up Pages A well developed and organized sign-up page has to relay a large quantity of data in a small area and must be quick and easy to read and understand. Overly creative plan names are more likely to hurt your sign-up process instead of help, as they’ll take longer to understand. It’s better to save your creativity for the other pages which will be redirecting the user to the sign-up page. Start a trial and error phase to test out what your audience might specifically be attracted to as this will vary from site to site.

A Guide to GIT using spatial analogies Some developers find Git takes a little getting used to, claiming that it is conceptually convoluted compared to other distributed version control systems. I used to number myself amongst them. Happily, I’ve found that a couple of simple spatial analogies have made me proficient and fluent in using Git’s command-line interface. One of the things that tripped me up as a novice user was the way Git handles branches. Unlike more primitive version control systems, git repositories are not linear, they already support branching, and are thus best visualised as trees in their own right. Branches thus become trees of trees. The authors of the git manuals clearly had this in mind. In simplified form, git object storage is “just” a DAG of objects, with a handful of different types of entries from <commit> to the index, optionally modifying index and working tree to match. If <branch> is specified, git rebase will perform an automatic git checkout <branch> before doing anything else.
