Have you ever went a day without electricity? I bet not. Try it. Should be interesting. Well, iPhone dependence is becoming more and more common every day. There are so many applications out there that appear to be so helpful, it’s hard to think what you would do without it.

The iPhone can now be used as your very own GPS. GPS systems started out at $900 a piece when they first came out. Now they are going down in price. Who needs a GPS, when you can download an app. to get around on your iPhone for as low as $0.99! The iPhone is now being looked at as the All-In-One, helpful tool. Heck you can even use the thing as a level to put up a picture on the wall!  Yeah, you have the internet to get you to Map Quest from your phone but that takes five-thousand extra steps, so why not get something customized for your phone and your patience.

Again, another new piece of technology, which started out being an auxiliary, is now a necessity for people who are highly adaptive to convenience.

Not only is it essential for developers to have the upper hand in new techonology for programming but for the web designers too.  CSS is rising and becoming more common. Some issues with this new revolution still arise, but it will definitely be an effective change in technology shared among the programmers, the designers and most importantly the user! There is the ability to have a lot more flexibility with alternative syntaxes, which benefits the programmer and  design techniques that let the designers use a more wide variety of fonts (this is only the least of it). Some of these tweaks in the system will cut time in half in the developing of a website.

Of course in this day and age we are looking for the most simple solution in creating for the web, but great solutions take time to produce. Many believe the evolution of CSS will further grow and expand for our benefit and this will result in excellent success.

Then, Why isn’t the new CSS being released right now?

Let’s stop and smell the keyboard people! Out of all the browsers out there, not every one of them can grant our wishes. Unfortunately, 2 companies in particular, made errors in CSS1 support: Explorer 3 and Navigator 4.

Since IE5 came out there was a positive outlook on their development of CSS but sadly it wasn’t much different than their previous version. Luckily a company called Opera Software created a new version of IE5 and displayed great implementation of CSS1, but their support doesn’t quite meet CSS2 standards.

While we push for this new technology, we will also have to put our hopes on hold until these companies can catch up with the complete application of CSS1.  Although, with the future releases of the 2 browsers, the CSS future seems bright and promising! This upcoming project will encourage designers to use CSS more and more with it’s large extent of flexibility.
