I heard the story a few days ago on NPR and was taken aback by AT&T’s approach to their data plans. Citing that 2% of their users use more than 2gb of 3G bandwidth a month, which is bogging down their system, and that justifies limiting the “unlimited” plan for everyone. Now don’t kid yourself,…

Optimizing your website to make the most of it takes continual work and modifications, but the benefits are well worth it.

It’s shocked me to see the number of people still using tables to lay out their websites… Tables pose a problem for many reasons. 1. Website Speed 2. Cost 3.
