JavaScript was and still is one of those coding languages that always seemed a little too difficult to get your head around and do anything truly useful with it. Times have changed and with the availability of numerous JavaScript frameworks the one time chore of adding interactivity to your website has been made easier, even exciting.
After skirting around a few frameworks in the early days I eventually made the conscious decision to stick with JQuery. Rather than use the first framework that came up when searching for a specific technique I decided to stick with one and hope to learn this.

A few weeks ago it came time to upgrade my contract phone and I bought an iPhone. At the time I was aware of some people’s issues with the phone as well as my own such as a lack of internal FM radio and basic camera. However when looking for a new phone that would allow me more use of the mobile Internet the iPhone with its free data and wi-fi package seemed the best option.
Almost instantly the iPhone has become an invaluable gadget. On a recent trip to London the phone not only helped me stay connected while in London but helped me navigate traffic when rushing for the train.
