I stepped into Indonesia recently and it’s been 2 weeks. All I notice was people are on their mobile browsing, it is a hot media right now in Indonesia, their 3G rate is very low and reliable, I even get myself a SIM card to browse with my mobile phone. That remind me about creating mobile-compatible web. Checking into my Google analytics, I saw some Opera Mini browser. After I log into my web with my Opera Mini, I notice that it took about 50kb to load a full website, which is very heavy for mobile web.

What is the content of the “design” in web design. It is the effect? The structure? The arrangement? Or the guide on a webpage? Which one is the core job of the web designer? Designing a web site shouldn’t be a web designer, but a web architecture, because one need to know how to structure the whole layout, then guiding the visitor from one part to another.

Once in a while I like to design something simple. Very simple that it doesn’t even have a graphic to represent one thing. Some people especially those who aren’t a designers or has no artistic mind, don’t really appreciate the minimalist design. As Leonardo Da Vinci once says “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”. Anyway, here are my list of inspiration.
