It's Thanksgiving Day in the U.S.
Many of my recent business contacts have been International from New Zealand to Europe to Brazi. Mix that with some crazy politics this fall, and a little bit of time in higher education it really got me thinking about what Thanksgiving means to me.

Are you ready for the crazy episode with Intergalactic super-hero Dan Terrio tomorrow? He skillfully escaped the studio selfie, so I had to dig this one up from the Mars rover. Amazingly, Dan was even inspirational in his alien encounter. Check back tomorrow for the actual interview. Tell a friend.
Happy Halloween/Thanksgiving time. Decided to swap out all the standard "IBE" colors for some crazy fall oranges, purples and blues. It's sort of crazy, and I wouldn't want to look at it all the time, but it's fun for a month. Building the new Ideas By Elliot Website on all modern standards made this work a lot better. Aside from photos, sponsors, and podcast client logos, there are no raster images.
Everything is either SVG or vector fonts.
I made some controversial choices that you might be interested in hearing about. It's not really something for show listeners in general, so I don't want to burden anyone with my ramblings. I want to touch on some of the design and development choices that I made for the Ideas By Elliot website.
This website makes extensive use of modern HTML 5 and CSS 3 technology with a tiny bit of JavaScript sprinkled in to achieve a few interactive portions (like playing podcasts!). Because 60+% of the traffic to the website has been mobile, quickly the decision was made to not even support out-of-date technology. This means only the last two versions of all browsers are supported. In the case of Microsoft's browsers, this means only Internet Explorer 10, 11, and Edge are supported.
Yesterday, I got the best compliment I could have received. I was a little blown away, so I'm sure I won't get it word for word. From an upcoming guest, "You need to keep doing this audio blog thing you're doing. I'm not trying to give you a big head or anything - in fact I don't even really like you - but you need to keep doing this. It could become a big deal."
That's a previous guest.
