Web Design Trends for 2010

Purists will say that great design is timeless. Yes, in an ideal world, we should ignore trends.

Pragmatically speaking, though, there is a lot of value in monitoring and incorporating design trends, especially with regard to websites.

Let’s face it: the web changes at a rapid pace. Unlike in other media, design trends on the web are not just driven by aesthetics.

Technology is changing that can drastically alter the capabilities of the medium.

Apache服务器的.htaccess是一个非常强大的分布式配置文件,学会使用.htaccess,对虚拟主机用户来说,可以实现众多的功能。 这里有一篇很容易理解的.htaccess介绍,作为入门文章非常的适合。文章最初来自freewebmasterhelp.comQiRan作 了简单的中文翻译,我将加以完善。

Part 1 – 介绍

Part 2 – .htaccess命令

Part 3 – 密码保护

Part 1 – 介绍

介绍

从本指南中,你将可以学习到有关.htaccess文件及其功能的知识,并用以优化你的网站。尽管.htaccess只是一个文件,但它可以更改服 务器的设置,允许你做许多不同的事情,最流行的功能是您可以创建自定义的“404

error”页面。.htaccess并不难于使用,归根结底,它只是在一个text文档中添加几条简单的指令而已。

我的主机支持它吗?

这可能很难用简单的答案来回答。许多主机支持.htaccess,但实际上并不会特别声明,许多其他类型的主机有能力但并不允许他们的用户使 用.htaccess。一般来说,如果你的主机使用Unix或Linux系统,或任何版本的Apache网络服务器,从理论上都是支持.htaccess 的,尽管你的主机服务商可能不允许你使用它。

判断你的主机是否允许.htaccess,一个标志很好的是它是否支持文件夹密码保护。为达到此功能,主机服务商需要使用.htaccess(当 然,少数情况下他们虽提供密码保护功能,但却并不允许你使用.htaccess)。如果你不确定自己的主机是否支持.htaccess,最好的办法是上传 你自己的.htaccess文件看看是否有用,或者直接发送邮件向你的主机服务商咨询。

我该怎么做?

The Power of a (Work)Day Off

If you are like most freelancers, the concept of taking a day off

from work is pretty wonderful. But in reality, it can kind of put you in

a whirlwind. It can even be downright stressful.

I was thinking about how grateful I am to be self-employed today,

when I remembered what a friend said in her Facebook status message. She

said she was confident it would be a great day because she had a day

off from work. This friend works a full-time 9-to-5 gig. I remember what

it used to be like to have a day off. I lived for days off. Now, I

sometimes have to force myself to take days off. Sometimes when I decide

to take a weekday off, I sometimes have to battle an insane amount of

guilt.
