Bringing Your Code to the Streets – Groovy Ruth John VJs on Bristol streets with Web Midi, a mini projector, audio analysis & a hacked laptop bag. Crazy young ‘uns.
The Ad Blocking Industry: Global, Large, Threatening – lots of interesting stuff here, including “at the DoubleClick Leadership Summit, where Google gathered a couple of hundreds of its advertising partners, 23% of the audience admitted using an ad blocker.”
Opera Mini 13 tames downloads; set them to wait for wifi (if you want) and set number of concurret downloads. Also, search categories.
Why you shouldn’t bother creating a mobile app – “Lessons learned spending one year creating and improving our mobile app.”
Microsoft Edge’s JavaScript engine to go open-source
Hybicon – “Hybrid icons. JavaScript library for synergistic SVG icons”. Interesting progressive enhancement technique for SVG icons. I filed an accessibility issue.
