Week 1B

We reviewed Chapter 1: Our Responsive Web.

We discussed the three ingredients in responsive web design: 
1) A flexible, grid-based layout
2) Flexible images and media
3) Media queries, module from the CSS3 specification

Two videos were watched in class:
1) Introducing Responsive Web Design
2) Ethan Marcotte

The first project was introduced and we had a chance to do some research to find poorly designed websites. Here is my list of "poorly designed websites". (Warning: Some of them are pretty bad):
