Response 2: Its no surprise that mobile browsing surpassed desktop browsing given that every one and their mother has a smartphone. Its another thing that all businesses big and small must adapt to.
Response 3: Rule #9 to me is the most important. Keeping it simple is the one rule that all designers must adhere to.

Response 4: Rule #1 is the most terrible mistake. Aside from the obvious problem of long loading times, websites with a ton of images are a migraine inducer. It also makes the website resemble a scam website complete with ads for male enhancement products and hyperlinks to adult websites.
Response 5: The article introduces the grid system. A form of web organization that has become ubiquitous in web design.
Response 6: The website by Alessandro D’agnano is my favorite. Its simple, with black and blue text on a white background and a layout that makes me think of a windows phone for some reason. It also looks great on mobile.
Response 7: My two favorites are Typography from Fifty-Two 80’s, and Map from Jongmin Kim. Fifty two eighties has a retro video game aesthetic to it which I have a soft spot for, and Map reminds me of the interface for NordVPN.
Response 8: Future City from MUTI really grabs my attention. It is viewed from a top down perspective, and has moving objects complete with wind turbines, cars, and a ship.
