Implementing Responsive Design: Building Sites for an Anywhere, Everywhere Web (Book Review)

Abstract

Web designers are at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to creating media-rich web content that attracts and retains visitors. The primary problem is that designers must account for countless devices and users along with multiple network connections in their designs. The need for media-rich sites has shifted from a nicety to a demand, while the range of devices and network technologies users can access to experience those sites has exploded. Every user has the potential to use multiple devices to access web content, from desktop to e-reader, and those devices can access that content using high-speed fiber optics, wi-fi, multiple bandwidths of cellular data and even modems.
