Earlier in my Blog I posted about the “AJAX File Upload Plugin“. Now, I came across the Interaction Design Posts from ZURB they’ve posted the Article “Image Uploads with 100% Less Suck. Guaranteed“.

Joomla “Google Maps Plugin”
Since some editors as JCE or TinyMCE are NOT accepting Google Maps Code I use the Google Maps Plugin for Joomla based Websites.
Just install the Plugin, sign up for an Google API Key, insert the Adress you like to display or use the Latitude and Longitude and here you go.
If you not know how to get a Latitude or Longitude click here for the Lat Long Finder
How to use the plugin in content
You can put the {mosmap} with parameters anywhere in content in Joomla: intro text or main text. See examples and documentation on the demo site: tech.reumer.net.

saab – Change Perspective
Designed to highlight the way Saab thinks in a different way to other car makers, this stunning site is driven by some ingenious use of Flash and Video. The hub of the site is based around a desktop, and content is accessed by clicking the various objects representing aspects of saab cars.
I like how to navigate interactively on the site, letting the user experience some short interaction while navigating through the content. Even if you’re not interested in buying a car, this website is worth to see!!

ASYLUM 626
A really freaky and inspiring Night at the Hotel626. The Website is using your Webcam and Micro to picture your personal image and voice to the screen. Twitter and Facebook where used as Tools to spread this link around the world.
You are just able to enter the Hotel as soon it’s getting dark outside!!

iSaw
A chain saw as a trojan horse!!
A wonderful example of a viral campaign. A fake web shop pretending to sale a chain saw with an usb slot. But in fact there is no possibility to buy a chain saw.. but you’re able to download an audio file (sounds like a chan saw) and will play every time you use your printer to remember you at the forest protection and should remind you to save papers.

Browser testing today
Andy Clarke wrote this article about how to do the browser testing today, especially if you use a lot of CSS3 and html5 elements in your Website.. He’s testing the Website CannyBill which is full of the new features like “RGBa, “border radius”, “box shadows”…
And best, his short but powerful sentece: Websites should not look the same in every browser! I totally agree with Andy!!!

Transparent PNG is out, RGBa is hype
The time where websites were full of transparent PNG images and PNG fixes is over!
CSS3 is featuring RGBA! Just write your rgb colour code and add the transparancy:
RGBA Browser-Support:
Like a lot of the features, RGBA is supported by a lot of the newest browsers, but not the rest. Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera browsers all support RGBA, but Internet Explorer does not. Fortunately, we can specify RGBA colours for browsers that support it and an alternative for browsers that do not.
Do the Fallback!
The simplest technique is to allow the browser to fall back to using a solid colour when opacity isn’t available.
