Sure I understand this point but how does a unknown start-up in a similar space bring in visitors/users to gain feedback & insight to make their product better? Figure out what is resonating with visitors/users and focus on that vs. wh

Awesome thank you for the feedback - very helpful! We are definitely looking to change things up - the flow, focus more on our video/typing exercises and or create more games to see what works best!

Why the downvote? Codecademy and CodePupil are working towards the same goal. TO make learning how to code easier and more fun then before. We are happy of Codecademy's success, as it shows there is a need for the learning to code through

Hi thank you for the feedback. There is a small issue with Firefox MAC users we are working on fixing. It works on chrome and safari as of now. In a week or two that will be fixed. Sorry about that, but thanks again for comment!

Responsive design is what all us designers and front end coders should be focused on learning and using. Check out the Starbucks website and manipulate the window size. It automatically changes stylesheets based on window size.

One thing of value I have noticed with Google Plus is when you receive a gmail within gmail, Google now includes senders Google Plus photo & link to their public plus account. This has saved me some time as I didn't have to go hunt and

UNfortunately that still takes time and possibly more time then using css hacks, which are quick and dirty.

by paul9290 15y ago
how do you fix ie7 and 8 css issues? Do you use hacks? That's what I have been doing but would like to get away from this as some employers frown on it.

Anyone know other sites that don't support IE? I know codecademy doesn't support ie7 and ie8.

Can notepadd++ be directly connected to your server so you can code, save and upload all from within the program?

Interesting/cool project, though I do wonder how you plan on keeping it simple when you expand and add additional actions? The UX of controlling media using the Xbox Kinect leaves a lot to be desired - it's cumbersome. I've had my mac mini

The owner of the camp needs to take all his energy away from these lawsuits and focus religiously on SEO and do so on a daily basis! He needs to create quality sites with tons of images about the camp itself, the area surrounding and others

Indeed providing the option to learn a foreign language to our children is valuable. Though for me what did five years of French class do for me? I would have preferred spending that time learning a skill that would help me later in life.
