Earlier today we quickly helped Sam Smith put his new laysick.com holding page together and used some simple, neat CSS to create an edge to edge scalable background image, no matter what size your browser window. The two information panels shift with the window size too.

We’re at a disadvantage in our offices as we use Macs and have a PS3 for those rare recreation times, but Microsoft have released a visual coding language - “Kodu” - aimed at encouraging children to create their own games. The toolkit is entirely icon driven, no complicated C+ frameworks in sight. Sounds very interesting; obviously it’s PC and XBOX only, but if successful we’re sure that similar software for other platforms will become available. (Wikipedia gives a nice overview of the language/method for anyone that’s interested).
