🦊 Oh my GOODNESS, responsive design turns ten today! Here’s how it happened, and who helped *make* it happen:‪https://ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/responsive-design-at-10/ …‬

I remember back them when I thought I knew that the only way was doing those complex fluid sorcery you were writing about in your great unstoppablerobotninja.com blog. Until that post 🤯

Congrats! Always an inspiration.

I avoid deleting the first versions of most designs, I keep duplicating artboards and iterate on the new ones. But I want to make it clear which are the old ones so I don’t confuse people or comment on past versions.

I can add them in a different page but that’s adding a click to the process. Now I’ve been placing them inside a colored background with a “past versions” label. Open to hear other ways.

How'd you do that? And if there isn't a link to the site on the POSSE, then how on earth does one find the original?

Bridgy does a posse-post-discovery, I have a <link rel=“feed” In my site’s head, pointing to all my notes that have a u-syndication link. More details here: https://brid.gy/about#link Happy to answer any more questions.

If you have a personal website: What did you use to build your site? And what do you like most about it? 🤗

I use @GoHugoIO and I love the speed, flexibility and the active and helpful community.

What would it look like to build personal websites with incremental correctness in mind? Some thoughts:‪https://brianlovin.com/overthought/incrementally-correct-personal-websites …‬

Great post, I’m building a pattern library for my site to make it easier to improve and iterate on it. I found that a major problem is going back and trying to understand old code and seeing many mistakes that we think that is better start from scratch.

Nice, I also publish various types of posts to my site by using shortcuts. This reply is one of them. Are you using the twitter api? (https://ramiroruiz.com/replies/2020/03/16/16-42-26)

Duh 🤦🏻‍♂️ never mind, just took a better look and is the twitter shortcut extension.

Interesting. I believe one factor that hurt UX was many graphic designers changing their title to UXD to earn more money. Graphic Design is an important element of ux design but it's not the entire pie. Neither is UXD- though it always wants to be.‪https://link.medium.com/VcgcSbeFB2 ‬

That’s why I always hated the title soup in design of recent years. I still want to call myself web designer like back in the day but nobody is looking for that position now 🤦🏻‍♂️

designing (your own stuff) in the browser‪

Most of the time I polish using the developer inspector until I’m happy, that and also I take too long to commit, I know 😅🤷🏻‍♂️

Here it is, video #0 is online. 😊 ❄️ Personal introduction. ❄️ Overview of the topics I'll cover. ❄️ Is that something you'd want to watch? Is the video/audio quality okay? Do you understand me, even with my accent? ❄️ Subscribe! 🧡‪https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cijF86B5UYI …‬

Great video, subscribed!

I’ve been thinking in also documenting my own site redesign but Idk if I would have the time. I only find small chunks of time here and there to work on it, should I do video or blog, spanish or funny-accent-english? Oh well 🤷🏻‍♂️
