CSS Tag Properties

We have seen how to integrate CSS into an (X)HTML document, but the properties of the tag(s) are still a little hard to understand.

   1. rel=""
   2. type=""
   3. media=""
   4. title=""
   5. id=""

Example:

<link href="default.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" title="mycss" id="default" />

<style type="text/css" media="screen" title="Inline">
<!--
body{color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#000000;}
-->
</style>

World's thinnest Android phone headed to Japan, 7.7mm thick

It looks like Samsung‘s time at the top could be extremely shortlived, as NEC’s 7.7mm thick Medias N-04C has leaked in Japan.

Following its launch at last week’s MWC, the Galaxy S II was hotly-tipped as the world’s thinnest smartphone at 8.49mm. Sorry Samsung, not any more, as the NEC Medias N-04c is on its way, measuring in at 7.7mm at its skinniest, and 8.4mm at its fattest point.

It may be super-slim, but the Japanese handset still manages to pack an 800MHz processor, Android 2.2 OS, a 4 inch touchscreen display, a 5.1 megapixel camera, a TV tuner and even an integrated NFC Chip, which Sony Ericsson claims they left out of the Xperia arc due to unnecessary bulk.

The NEC Medias N-04C is expected to launch on Thursday 24th February, and will be available on Japanese network NTT DoCoMo. No word on an international release, but we’ll be keeping our fingers crossed.

'Safe Deposit Box' patent filed by Apple

Patents filed by Apple reveal that it is working on a secure, cloud-storage 'safety deposit box' for Mac OS X.

Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, due to be released in the summer, could include a new 'safety deposit box' for important and private files, it has been reported.

Patently Apple reports that the aim of the system is twofold - to protect files from unauthorised access and to protect files from loss due to a failure of a storage device.

The system could be an extension of MobileMe or Time Machine and will likely provide storage space for personal media collections, backing up music, movie, app and e-book purchases. Files stored in the system will be encrypted and, the report says, Apple is thinking of adding creaky door noises when you first open the safe deposit box app and a slamming sound when close the app.

Putting a file into secure storage will be a simple case of dragging and dropping, whereas accessing files will require a user to click on the safe deposit box icon and verify their identity. Files stored in the safe deposit box could be subject to a "timeout monitor" that limits the amount of time that they can be accessed for.

The patent was originally filed in Q3 2009 by engineers Duncan Kerr and David Falkenburg but details were only made public last week.

There have been plenty of rumours circulating in recent weeks about Apple's plans for future cloud-based services, including reports that MobileMe could become a free service very soon.

It is essential to define the purpose of the website

It is essential to define the purpose of the website as one of the first steps in the planning process. A purpose statement should show focus based on what the website will accomplish and what the users will get from it. A clearly defined purpose will help the rest of the planning process as the audience is identified and the content of the site is developed. Setting short and long term goals for the website will help make the purpose clear and plan for the future when expansion, modification, and improvement will take place. Measurable objectives should be identified to track the progress of the site and determine success.

craigs list

Craig Newmark began the service in 1995 as an email distribution list of friends, featuring local events in the San Francisco Bay Area, before becoming a web-based service in 1996. After incorporation as a private for-profit company in 1999, Craigslist expanded into nine more U.S. cities in 2000, four in 2001 and 2002 each, and 14 in 2003.

In 2009, Craigslist operated with a staff of 28 people.[3] Its main source of revenue is paid job ads in select cities – $75 per ad for the San Francisco Bay Area; $25 per ad for New York City, Los Angeles, San Diego, Boston, Seattle, Washington D.C., Chicago, Philadelphia, Orange County (California) and Portland, Oregon – and paid broker apartment listings in New York City ($10 per ad).

The site serves over twenty billion page views per month, putting it in 33rd place overall among web sites worldwide and 7th place overall among web sites in the United States (per Alexa.com on June 28, 2010), with over 49.4 million unique monthly visitors in the United States alone (per Compete.com on January 8, 2010). With over eighty million new classified advertisements each month, Craigslist is the leading classifieds service in any medium. The site receives over two million new job listings each month, making it one of the top job boards in the world.[4][5] The classified advertisements range from traditional buy/sell ads and community announcements to personal ads. Advertisements for "adult" (previously "erotic") services were initially given special treatment, then closed entirely on September 4, 2010, following a controversy over claims by state attorneys general that the advertisements promoted prostitution.[6][7]

The site is notable for having undergone only minor design changes since its inception; even by 1996 standards, the design is very simple. Since 2001, the site design has remained virtually unchanged, and as of April 2010, Craigslist continues to avoid using images and uses only minimal CSS and JavaScript, a design philosophy common in the late 1990s but almost unheard of today for a major website.[citation needed]

In December 2006, at the UBS Global Media Conference in New York, Craigslist CEO Jim Buckmaster told Wall Street analysts that Craigslist has little interest in maximizing profit, instead it prefers to help users find cars, apartments, jobs, and dates.[8][9]

The company does not formally disclose financial or ownership information. Analysts and commentators have reported varying figures for its annual revenue, ranging from $10 million in 2004, $20 million in 2005, and $25 million in 2006 to possibly $150 million in 2007.[10][11][12] It is believed to be owned principally by Newmark, Buckmaster, and eBay (the three board members). eBay owns approximately 25%, and Newmark is believed to own the largest stake.[12][13][14]
