Back in October, I talked about the problem we have of blaming the technique instead of the implementation. I mentioned several examples, but the one that really prompted the post was the myth of responsive design equaling bad performance.

The web is an incredibly dynamic and interactive medium, and designing for it demands that we consider more than just visual aesthetics. Let’s not forget to give those other qualities the attention they deserve.

While you’re at it, dig through the rest of the articles from this year’s calendar. As always, there’s loads of good stuff!
