Cardinal Path

Pseudo-classes, ChromeOS, and 2 minute email – The Monday April 11th Roundup

More earthquakes, violence, revolution, but it all pales compared to the big news of the week (well, fortnight): Canadian elections! Yeah, yeah, no one cares except us, we know… The interesting part, though. is the tech card that’s being played by the NDP with calls for national broadband, a ban on UBB, and enshrined net neutrality laws. Could this be the beginning of tech laws playing an important role in the Canadian political sphere?

Perhaps more interesting to our non-Canadian readers, we have posts on CSS3 pseudo-classes, page load speed boosts in ChromeOS, and email marketing in 2 minutes a day.

  • GetElastic discusses why you should test your PPC landing pages before sending paid traffic to them. The primary reason, of course, being that you are paying for traffic, why are you sending it to a page that might not convert?
