Description: Load data from a external file and places the returned HTML into the matched element.

$(‘.helppopup-content’).load(content.html #panel);

The .load() method, unlike $.get(), allows us to specify a portion of the remote document to be inserted. When this method executes, it retrieves the content of content.html, but then jQuery parses the returned document to find the element with an ID of panel. This element, along with its contents, is inserted into the element with an ID of result, and the rest of the retrieved document is discarded.

Social media is a great way of driving traffic, and there’s plenty of online resources to help you get started. Here’s a few useful tips I have found –

#1: So Many Networks

Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare & LinkedIn…Don’t waste time trying to master each network at once. Pick one and focus on getting that perfect!

#2: Find Your Audience

Have a strategy & determine who you are and who your clients are. Be sure you know the lingo and style that your clients are comfortable with and where they talk to each other—on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, blogs or on social bookmarking sites.

#3: Quality Over Quantity

You don’t have to post every day to create an effective presence with your social media. Find a frequency that makes sense for your business and go with that. Making it just look pretty by adding a banner or a background isn’t always enough! Hashtags Hashtags are a great way to follow trends.

#4: Managing Your Networks

Managing your social media networks can be easy peasy by using Ping.fm, Tweetdeck or a Facebook app. I personally use Ping.fm which I have integrated with my blog. It is a simple and FREE service that makes updating your social networks easy!

#5: Crowdsourcing

Find your audience, ask questions and use the information you gather to your advantage! Crowdsourcing is one way to gain a FREE bit of market research, which will help you sell and promote the right products. Exploit the information out there to give your clients something they’re interested in. A great example of crowdsourcing is Dunkin Donuts.

Happy Social Media Day!

Everyone uses a different browser these days. The most popular options are Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, which make up close to 98% of the internet market share of browsers, with IE dominating the market.

When building a website it’s important for all designers to make sure their website is usable across all major media, whether its a popular browsers, mobile devices, or any other web browsing devices. However hours of valuable time is wasted debugging IE6, it’s complete lack of web standards support is a royal pain in the arse.
