5 for Friday | The Week's Best Blogs (7/17/09 Edition)

July 17th, 2009 in Friday Blog Clips

by: Matthew Griffin

This is my first 5 for Friday post in a few weeks so I thought I'd do a little penance by extending the usual five links to eight. I'm excited about jumping back into the saddle on Mirificam Press because I know there are some new and interesting things on the horizon, not the least of which is the upcoming video series. Travel and vacationing for the rest of the summer will be minimal so expect to see the regular release of articles in the coming months.

I've missed the Friday 5, good to see it back.

like brad, i missed this too. this is where I learned all my web design skills... :-) I've noticed that more and more sites are using the "scroll" to the right model. instead of having to scroll down, or jumping to another page, they have the option to "jump" to the right to the right section of the page. i.e. http://www.peter-pearson.com/ ---- is this a new thing?

Thanks, Brad and Edgar. Edgar, that's not necessarily a new thing. I think it's the result of the popularity of the jQuery slider scripts out there. As you can see I used one on my business site http://sixhousedesign.com
