It is true that every day of our life teaches us something new. There are blunders made in graphic designing by the designers and now it is a time to work on the imperfection that they have found while doing their job. If I ask who a graphic designer is? What comes up to your mind? Well! Everybody thinks something different. Graphic designer is the person who doesn’t get scared while doing new experiments.
Hastiness is the biggest enemy of graphic designers. He is the person who should work carefully even with the exasperating clients too. At this time, where the news of recession is coming out of every corner, designers also deserve the raise. We know that with the time, the designing pattern also changes. Designers should make them updated with new designing skills. It will be really helpful to them in fulfilling the expectations of their clients.

Almost every one of us is using social networking site namely Facebook. The app developers have introduced new website design of Facebook. It is the timeline that will give you a new outlook for your online profile. Yeah, but you can still manage your account’s privacy settings and hide the photos & stories from people. In the old web design of Facebook, you need to scroll down and down and down….. to view your old updates until it makes you bore at time. With timeline, you can see your events, stories of your joining day.
Let me tell you that in this new layout, all the posts, photos and stories are well-organized into years and months. Well if you still didn’t get it, then I can explain you with an example. Suppose you have joined the Facebook in 2009 and it’s now 2011. Using the timeline can make easy for you to recall all your updates during the year of 2009 without making many efforts. You just need to click on the 2009 that you will be able to see at the scroll bar placed on the right side of your profile. It works just like a scrapbook that you can open and evoke old memories once again! This application is not only available in your profile, but your friends can use this and you can see their old stories.
Isn’t great? You can easily track your buddy’s personal history. One thing that I want to share with you is about your privacy settings. Please make sure that your stories and updates are set to friends only. It will be good for you only as you may have heard about the news coming from past weeks that hackers are entered in the Facebook. So be safe and keep your friends away from such unhealthy activities on networking site. Hope you will enjoy this newly set website design for Facebook- the Timeline.

Today in this internet savvy world, a new way has been introduced to make necessary changes in the web content, which allows a company to maintain their website through their end.

Content management systems and website templates have made building and managing a website a very easy and affordable task for everybody including small businesses. The quality websites require taking a savvy business decision to work with a full service graphic design and a web programming firm. It requires working with a professional team of designers, developers and SEO’s. The cost of the website design depends upon the size and complexity of the site required to meet the requirements of the business. A five to ten page website introducing your business and the services will considerably cost lower than the one which processes purchase orders. The actual cost involved in designing a website is that of domain registration, hosting fees, graphics designing including the logo of the company, content development (you need to hire a professional copywriter to write content for your website), CMS configuration and implementation fees, programming fees and some additional cost incurred for getting blogs, press releases, articles written for search engine optimization and keyword optimization.
