Try a little tenderness

Web compatibility issues with Google Chrome

chrome-safari

Oh no another browser, more CSS issues!

When your website is not rendering correctly in IE 6, 7 and 8 it’s quite annoying but you can fix any compatibility issues by using the conditional statements to link to alternate css stylesheets. Here’s an example from the Jealous Design website for our Internet Explorer stylesheet e.g:

<!–[if IE]>
<link href=”css/stylesie.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
<![endif]–>

Now there’s a new problem and it’s called Google Chrome! Some things tend to render a little differently in Google Chrome and there’s no conditional statement (like the one above)…

So what to do if your having issues with a website not rendering properly in Google Chrome?

Luckily Google Chrome uses the same Rendering engine as Safari so all you need to do is add the following conditional statement in your head tags:

<!–[if Safari]>
<link href=”css/stylessafari.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
<![endif]–>

Problem solved! Yay!

Flashmobs

Flashmobs fancy starting one?

The T-mobile ‘flash mob’ inspired ads have been one of the most original ad campaigns for a longtime, so we thought we’d learn a little about Flash mobs and show you a few videos we’ve discovered.

What is a Flash Mob?
Its a sudden gathering of people into a crowd that do something unusual for a few minutes in unison and then disperse.

Who runs Flash Mobs?
Flash mobs are run by individual people for the fun of it. There are no organisations behind real Flash Mobs, though there have been a couple of gatherings using Flash Mob principles organised by commercial interests.

How can I go to a Flash Mob?
You need to find a group that is close to your location flashmob.co.uk should be one of your choices for keeping in touch by reading the site and following us on Twitter and you could through social networking sites such as facebook and myspace for groups setting up Flash Mobs.

The above text is from www.flashmob.co.uk, take a look at their website to find out more about Flash Mob and where your nearest mob will be.
