A brand new series on Smashing Magazine, where we highlight and curate the most interesting discussions, tools, techniques and articles that have been published recently and present them in a nice compact overview.
Some very important browser stats, layout patterns for responsive designers, a new device class to keep an eye on, a great article on CSS performance, and the important fact that the Unix time stamp is more nerdy than ever these days.
An experiment with fonts, lasers, node and sockets, a presentation about boring CSS, type news, JavaScript opinions, a crazy animation, and more.
Lots of stuff about fonts, design, CSS and code in general in this edition, but also some instant-classic advice on modern Web design and some very interesting experiments with new HTML5 features.
