State of Gold Coast Web Development
We just posted an interesting article on our site, regarding the State of Web Development on the Gold Coast. Hope you find it interesting!
An ODE to Jason
One of our web developers has left us after being with us for 2 awesome years. So this is a big thank you Jason love : the coder of coders, the king of css, the integrator of Google. Jason was instrumental in pushing the web development team who built our new Content / Web Management Systems, and thru his constant nagging (joking!) this has evolved into a first rate product.
Jason is leaving the Gold Coast and moving back to Sydney and we wish him all the luck for his future endeavours.

Standards compliance with IE8 - will this web developer's Utopian paradise ever be realised?
I got an email from Microsoft the other day regarding Internet Explorer 8 which is about to be released in August. Now I know not a lot of people are not the biggest fan of Microsoft, however I *think* they have finally done something intelligent in regards to this web browser.
They have *apparently* have released it in a "default rending mode" which will make "real improvements in standards compliance" (note the quote, unquote). They've also bundled it up with some other cool features.
Microsoft adds "IE8 will address many pain points especially for developers and designers helping them drive toward the ideal of “write once, run anywhere” and freeing up more time to innovate vs modify content for different browsers.".
Truly I am praying to the internet gods that this browser will finally solve the issues with web development.

Hello World - it's web development news live from the Gold Coast!
Hello World!
I've decided to start my first blog posting to pay homage to the age old tradition of all those who start programming in a new language (even tho blogging really isn't programming) with the famous "hello world" message.
For those who are not familiar with this - Hello World is usually the first thing a programmer learns when learning a new language (they write a program that writes "hello world" on the screen).
OK enough with the Geek talk.
What's with this blog? Well there are a number of reasons I am writing this blog:
1. To win friends and influence people
2. To create an opportunity share knowledge about web development
Over the next few months, I will be posting (hopefully once every couple days) stuff about web development, things happening in the Gold Coast (that may or not be relevant to Web Development), and what I got up to down the pub last weekend.
Who am I:
I am the head of development for a small web development company on the Gold Coast called Trent Moffatt Designs. For those that aren't aware what we are about, basically we build custom websites that do cool things online.
Well thats about it for now, hope to see you back here soon!
Enjoy!
