Lecture Topic: HTML5 - CSS... Tips of the Day.
Refer here for the full tutorial: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/htm...
Ever
wondered how a particular effect was achieved in a web design, and,
after zooming in several clicks, you found that the author added several
subtle shadows, borders, gradients, etc? In the past, this was achieved
simply by slicing out an image, and setting it as a background of some
element. Luckily, with CSS3, we can be afforded much more flexibility.
Now, while the code for such a simple effect might be a bit tedious, its
well worth it, and thats what well review in todays written and video
quick tip!

Lab Topic: Mobile Frameworks - what is the hardest thing in a modern programming world
Last week... what did Mr. M. decide to do for Open Source Mobile Quick Mark? nothing... sunday...
Join Mr. M. on a Apple Motion Templates for sale
Do you want to try your own Apple Motion Template
Here is what MrM is doing with Rigging

Movie of the Week - 20 minute video - Current and about
This surprised Mr. M. - will it surprise you?
Again.... many are not interested in Open Source...
maybe anyone that hasn't profited from OS, should watch this video.
It is hard to think about FUTURE jobs, without Open Source....
and we are NOT just talking about the Internet.
After watching this... ask youself
Has Linux arrived?
Has Open Source Arrived?
This may have a lot to do with your future jobs...
Anyone interested in a Ubunto, linux projec?

Movie:
Why show this is an Open Source course?
Mr. M. not sure...but someone smarter than him thought it was a good idea at OS course..
I guess behavior is part of MM...

http://readplease.com/mm400462/public/
This can be tricky to understand... it is a framework...
if you put all the extra time you are suppose to your programming courses..
this should come easy after an hour or two, maybe more.
Mr. M. sample of Part 2 - with Color Box.
Do part 1 of
http://framework.joshfire.com/doc/0.9/gettingstarted/firstapp1
Steps
- Download the required files (it is in the instructions)

For next week - for more than 3/5, try this:

Try part 3 (Mr. M. did get it working)
Try part 4.
Try on your mobile device if you can.
