On the 8th of November 2011, an email containing information on Adobe’s decision was leaked to the world, vindicating everything Steve Jobs knew about Flash. The Flash player is to be substituted by HTML 5, a change that has been slowly gathering momentum over the past number of years. The Flash Player has reached its end. At KD Web, we has been developing wesites using HTML 5 for many months now as we anticipated this would happen. When we design and build sites for clients, we try to use technology that will last for as long as possible.

We all know that Facebook has long been the front runner in the social networking arena. The innovation they have shown has set them apart from other would be competitors and it would seem that they aim to continue this trend in the marketplace. Since the site debut, they have incorporated numerous changes and updates to their user interface, most of which were received with great enthusiasm. The majority of these changes were aimed at making the interface more user-friendly whilst other changes were strictly for upgrading security.

Back in May, Google announced the introduction of Google Wallet, a virtual one-stop payment method. Say goodbye to cash and hello to Google Wallet. (Maybe ‘Hello Moto’ would be a good tagline).

The rumour mills are working in overdrive at the moment as the powers that be at Facebook have made it clear they’ll be making a big announcement at the f8 developers conference later this week. So what can we expect and will it be worth the build-up? In my experience, Facebook regularly make a huge deal about any pending announcements or changes and they rarely live up to the hype that surrounds them.

There really is no better way to understand how much of an impact being on the first page of Google can have on your business than a good PPC (Pay per click) campaign. Pay per click instantly puts you on the first page of Google for your chosen keywords, and gives you a taste of what it would be like to be there all the time. The sales you make during this period will convince you for sure that SEO and PPC campaigns are worth their weight in gold.

Facebook finally announced yesterday that they would be making some much needed changes to their privacy settings. In what is no doubt a reflex to G+’s circles, Facebook have really gotten to grips with the issue of privacy when it comes to certain areas.

Who saw this coming then? Everyone of course! Google were never going to let Facebook away with it so easily, and if I’m honest it’s about time facebook had some competition on the gaming front.

You may not have heard yet, but there’s a great new analytical tool on the market that looks set to change the dynamics of Twitter yet again… and we love anything we don’t have to pay for with a passion!
