Content Research (or How to Tell If Your Content is Broken)
Understand content: Go beyond data analysis and gain insight into user real interactions This article explores how content research can be conducted to gain insight into the true way users interact with content, rather than relying solely on data analysis. We will explain the content research process and share some practical tips to help you improve the effectiveness of content and avoid common misunderstandings.

Are FTP Programs Secure?
Security risks and safer alternatives to FTP Key points: FTP programs such as FileZilla may hide passwords, but if credentials are stored, they are easily accessible from the configuration file, jeopardizing security. FTP itself lacks security and transmits data and credentials in plain text, which is easily intercepted and abused. Secure alternatives, such as FTPS and SFTP, encrypt data during transmission, providing a higher level of security than traditional FTP. SSH keys enhance security by authenticating without transmitting sensitive information to effectively prevent interception. Continuous delivery tools and secure FTP protocols such as SFTP and FTPS can alleviate human errors during manual file transfer

Create an Icon Font Using Illustrator & IcoMoon

A Box of Tricks for Building Responsive Email
Responsive Mail Design Guide: Make your emails perfectly present on a variety of devices Core points With the popularity of mobile devices in mail reading, responsive mail layout must take into account the characteristics of mobile devices. This requires rearranging the mail content, and arranging the originally horizontally-arranged cells vertically on the mobile device. Single column mail layouts (usually containing a single title image) do not require rearranging elements, just adjust the width to match the device size. This is a scalable design rather than a responsive design. Multi-column mail layouts require rearrangement of the columns as the device width decreases. This can be achieved by using nested tables or changing the display property of a table cell. The latter is more elegant and uses native CSS rules. In responsive mail
