If you are in the web development/website design business, you already know that HTML5 is coming, and soon. The truth is that HTML5 has been under development for quite some time. According to Wikipedia, the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG) has been developing what's supposed to be the largest and most complete update superseding HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0, and XHTML 1.1, since June of 2004.

I stumbled upon 2 "web-cuments" I would like to share with those who are interested in HTML5 like us. The first one is an e-book called "Dive into HTML5" written by Mark Pilgrim. The second one is a diagram of what HTML5 really is, what browsers support it, and information of that sort. Note that when you see the document, Internet Explorer (and even the newer version 9.0 coming out) are not fully adopting the HTML5 mark up, unsurprisingly. Click on this HTML5 link to see the document.*

We can hardly wait for HTML5 to be "officially released." It will change the web as we surf program it!

If you happen to live in California then it would be a few-hour drive to get to the Computer History Museum, located in Mountain View, California. However, for those who have not gotten the opportunity to check it out in "real life," here's a cool 4-minute video with the museum's curator Dag Spicer showcasing some of the most impressive pieces they hold in the location.

While browsing the Internet I stumbled upon a video that really opened my eyes. Computers are amongst us in our everyday lives and they have definitely changed the way we do practically everything. However, despite all the different advances on many of the components of a standard computer, the mouse approach and way of use per se has never changed. It is a "point and click" procedure we repeat over, and over, and over again. When this is something that is relatively easy to do (and for several times each session), it would be cool to have a way to expand the use of the mouse in a way that would make computing easier than ever. Well, there IS a revolutionary new way that might change the way we do everything. I would not be surprised if I see this on Best Buy's shelves in a few years.


What are your thoughts about it? Drop a comment... I would love to hear your opinion on this topic!

It is not a secret to anybody that this is one of the most asked questions in the computer world: What computer is best, a MAC or a PC? Usually the response is "MACs are better, and PCs are not." To this I usually don't respond, because it is absurd to think only MACs are good, or I simply said "it is up to you to decide." However, I was never satisfied with any of these answers. They give you no real insight into what really makes a MAC or a PC THE choice for you to buy one, and neither finishes the, what seems, never ending MAC and PC fans fight. A few days ago someone said in my personal Facebook account that "Windows sucks. MACs are the way to go;" and this is what really triggered today's post...

A few days ago we were asked to create one of our free web analysis reports for a client. Since we are here to help everyone succeed, we jumped quickly onto our task to get the report done and emailed in a couple of days. This report, by the way, shows general yet important clues that let the client know if there's any problem (or not) with their site optimization-wise. We check URLs, images, web pages' ranking, and a few other aspects of what website optimization comprises (NOTE: Website optimization is not SEO [search engine optimization], but a branch of it instead).

Right after the client received it, he emailed us back to tell us that he had "paid for professional SEO" but he needed to confirm that a few things he paid for were done (red flag number one: why would a client verify a service?). At this point we had to mention that his website did not go through what this "company" told him they were going to do--at least not completely. However, this is just the beginning of a chain of events that helped us get the idea for this week's blog post: SEO gone wrong (actually, we should say "SEO" because that service was not even fully performed).
