Has a similar syntax for example

   1:  glow.ready(function() {

   2:  

   3:  });

this is the first bit you put for all Glow scripts. In jQuery scripts you start them with

   1:   $(document).ready(function() {

   2:  

   3:   });

So very similar… What I have found with Glow it is more focused towards coding visual widgets as they call them on the Glow website. The widgets include, AutoSuggest, Carousel, Editor, Panel, Slider, Timetable and many more. They are also really easy to code, for example Carousel is the one I have been messing around with and with less than a 100 lines of Javascript had a pretty basic Carousel going.

Documentation seems to be good as well but there is a distinct lack of user submitted examples. Whereas with jQuery there’s loads!!!

I believe once Glow starts to get more widely used it is going to be very popular!

More posts will come regarding Glow in the near future…

Using the P2 theme, going to make a couple of modifications though and add a few features.

Check back soon!

The way a user interacts with the web has been the same for a very long time now. The user uses a keyboard and mouse to click, select and move information and interact with the page. With the influx of new touch devices the way the user interacts is changing rapidly but this is only interacts with the device not the actual website. As a web developer I use HTML, JavaScript, PHP and many other programming languages and using these languages I code interactions for the mouse and keyboard only. I don’t code a event handler for a finger, or a “pinch” and because of this the new multi-touch devices, like the iPad, iPhone, Tablets, and other touch devices.

Until web developers have the ability to program actual interactions with finger interactions then no touch device is going to be revolutionary for the web.

In fact I believe with the current state of touch devices, touch devices and the web are never going to revolutionize the user experience.

Every time I look at the Macbook Pro’s I get put off from buying one, and that’s due to the cost! These laptops are so expensive that I couldn’t justify the cost right there and then, I mean I got a perfectly good laptop at the moment that my dad gave me, its about only about 1.5 years old, and runs Windows 7 Enterprise amazingly.

If I had a laptop that was 3 or 4 years old then maybe I would get a Macbook Pro, or if I had a large amount of cash just lying under my bed. But until that it’s going to be a while and this annoys me, why do Mac’s have to be so expensive, I mean it doesn’t cost £1.5k to make a laptop so why sell it at that price, surely if they were cheaper they would sell more and if they sold more they would clearly make up the difference?

2010 is going to be a busy year for me in terms of work and more than likely is going to result in a lot of days and nights spent at my desk or in the Learning Zone or Library at Lancaster University.

For this reason as mentioned in previous posts am hoping to have a couple more games to help. I am hoping I can find a good balance between doing my work and getting some gaming in.

Of course though as always plans like that at University never work out. With peer pressure and boredom I can imagine I will end up sliding back into my usual routine of going out.

Now may have similar results on some of the pages, I visited one or two of his.

Some of the posts I hope to upload will include, tutorials/information on coding, including web development and application development. I am hoping to post some information on tricky problems, in C, Java and PHP. I am also going to post about games, specifically PS3 games.

I am hoping in the New Year to acquire COD:MW2, Assassin’s Creed 1 and 2 and of course Uncharted 2. I would of prefer to get Modern Warfare 2 on PC but due to my computer being a bit out dated it is looking more and more likely that I will be getting it for PS3. Unless I am able to upgrade my machine in the New Year.

For now this site is going to look like a dull WordPress blog site until I can decide what I want to do.

One option that I have seen and I may look into making a adapted version of is Tim Van Damme’s site. What I am thinking is something similar but with my own twist on it. Will more than likely try it out before doing it.
