Modern Rules of Web Developing

In the last years there is a huge hype around web 2.0 (despite the fact there is not any people on the Earth who thinks the same about the meaning of this) and most of the people thinks it's just about shiny graphics, large fonts & Ajax on the pages. I think it's not important what web 2.0 means (and it's also not important to define this buzzword) - but below this hype, the rules of web developing slowly and silently changed - I think we have to notice, analyze & adapt these changes to work efficiently and to produce quality works.

Modern Rules of Web Developing:

1. Connectivity: Never try to reinvent the wheel. If there is an already running, working solution what can be a part of your product - use that! There is hundreds of APIs out at the web - build the next step, don't begin everything from the scratch.
2. Materialize: If you got the idea, put it online as you can. Don't hesitate, or plan too much - try to keep the quality, use just the necessary features, put it online - the visitors & customers will know and report what kind of features they want so you can prioritize the features later.
3. Usability: Usability is everything. Don't think a simple design or a lot of features means usability - you have to be a user, as we are all users, when you think about that.

Welcome & Philosophy

Dear Visitor,

this blog is not the first one what I open here at Blogger but this is my first attempt to create something in English - since I have to improve my English skills some misspellings or other language errors may occur - sorry about that - I hope my English will be better in every post! :)

I'm a 29 years old IT professional from Hungary, currently living & working in Dublin. My interests to computers comes from the age when Commodore 64 was a superb computer with excellent graphics & music features. Internet is one of the most powerful tech thing what I ever saw to born in my life - I think we are still just at the very beginning of something amazing, unbelievable thing - today's Internet (the name what we use today) is just the first step to this direction.

This blog is mainly about Web based technologies and Internet related philosophies, but I will include more pragmatic issues about productivity, lifestyle, about how a modern web worker can live & work with the best practices.

Have a nice day :)
