Welcome to the Gendec Design Blog. As this is still quite new, there is very little information available. However, on the plus side, you are likely to have our full attention with any discussion you initiate.

Flash/Shockwave is the ubiquitous plug-in that enables animation in today’s web-browser environment. Please use this forum to debate the pros and cons for including Flash in your web-site.

Today’s web-sites are increasingly dependent on client-side scripting to provide many of the ‘must-have’ features demanded by Internet-users. Even though the large majority of Browsers support Javascript, in many cases it is still important to provide a fall-back for those situations where Javascript is disabled. This technique is referred to as “Unobtrusive Javascript”.

Please post to this category to discuss any issues involving Javascript.

The Internet is now very well established, and there is a mind-boggling array of excellent sites on-line. Over the years, the diversity has actually decreased with the current focus more on “What Works”, rather than extravagant glitz.

Web-design, as with all design, is quite subjective and there will be a large range of opinions about what is best. At Gendec Design, we have our own ideas about design, and we would appreciate hearing from designers who have different views.

There are many companies offering web-hosting in today’s market-place. In most cases, the quality of service varies in direct proportion to the cost.

We would like to hear from users with hosting experiences, both good and bad. If your experiences are bad, please limit comments to facts that can be substantiated — we don’t want to get sued.
