Hello everyone. I was wondering if you could help me answer a question for an essay. Thanks!!

 

What is considered modern & cutting edge in web design today?

Retro seems to be in, but knowing me and my inability to keep up with things we've probably moved on from that long ago ;-)

Here Comes Another Bubble

 

Here Comes another Bubble is initially a comical representation of the web both present, past and future however it has a number of underlying messages that can highlight where the web is progressing. (As well as being somewhat addictive )

 

The Machine is Us/ing Us (web 2.0)

 

The machine is Us/ing us on the other hand is perhaps a view of the web which most would never discover or even consider, it is presented cleverly and the comparisons are obvious although hidden to those without the comprehension or insight to consider what the internet "really is", This is certainly the future of the internet, sucsessfully relate the two and you will see that it is currently being exploited, and its sucsessor...

 

Hope that helps, and would certainly be interested to hear your views.
