HTML 5 - New Markup and New Elements

Submitted by Kapil on Wed, 09/23/2009 - 16:01
In previous blog you came to know about the difference between HTML 4.0 and HTML 5.0. Today you will know what are the new markup and new elements used in HTML 5.0

New Markup Using HTML 5

It provides a number of new elements and attributes. Some of them are replacements for common uses of generic block (<div>) and inline (<span>) elements, for example <nav> (website navigation block) and <footer>. Other elements provide new functionality through a standardized interface, such as the <audio> and <video> elements.
The HTML5 syntax is no longer based on DOCTYPE, SGML despite its markup being very close. It has, however, been designed to be backward compatible with common parsing of older versions of HTML. It comes with a new introductory line which looks like <!DOCTYPE html>, which enables standards-compliant rendering in all browsers that use "DOCTYPE sniffing"

HTML 5 - First Tests and Analysis

As a Web Development Lead at Tekriti, I have been at the forefront of developing the HTML, CSS and JS for several projects which Tekriti has been executing. What has been notable in this entire experience of mine is how little the HTML markup has evolved in the past 10 years or more. Sure we have definitely moved from table'd layouts to table less layouts, we have made concentrated efforts on keeping the HTML fluid, using CSS 2.0 and following W3C standards to the maximum. All of the above was the learning which me and my team has had over the past 4 years as Web 2.0 came calling. However there was still something lacking, as all this learning was more from a standards and discipline perspective, nothing new from a markup or technology perspective. One thing is for sure, HTML'ization of websites is a specialized job with a special set of skills and experience (especially with the plethora of browsers around these days IE6, 7, 8, Mozilla FF, Chrome, Safari, Opera).

How to Incentivize personnel in a growth company?

Submitted by Ashish on Tue, 09/15/2009 - 23:56

The assets of today’s companies are its people, and more so if the company draws most of its revenues from the services. I have always enjoyed working with people, and have almost assumed dealing with people to be strength. This was 5 years back, and then Tekriti happened. The definition of “working with people” got expanded to cover many more things than what I had assumed initially. A large part of my job is to manage the expectations of people, and ensuring that they are incentivized enough and still keep the company healthy.

Power dressing, ties, formal greetings etc are not the facets of Tekriti. Here the Teknokrats are pretty democratic to show the grace and color of their talent, humor, intelligence and prudence, which materializes to give existence to Tekriti. Any mode of communication whether it is a meeting, party, outing, phone call or e-mail are an important opportunity to strengthen trust and relationships to make a direct impact on the company's bottom-line. How effectively we collaborate to learn is as crucial as the products we develop and the services we provide.

Cloud Computing, SOA and SaaS - Birds of a Feather

Submitted by Manish on Fri, 07/24/2009 - 22:36
Circa- April 2007 AD, a major revolution was starting to happen on the Planet Earth. Amazon.com, which until now had been one of our favourite e-commerce platforms decided it was going to utilize it's spare server capacity and lease it out to the world in a pay-as-you-use basis. What they called Amazon Web Services (or AWS) at that time, is today being heralded as a wave of Cloud Computing, which almost all server infrastructure providers are implementing.

As a company and as a business, how best can you take advantage of this marvellous framwork which embraces the concepts of Software as a Service (Saas) and Service Oriented Architecture (SoA) to the maximum. At Tekriti we have been experimenting, evangelizing and executing innovation using Cloud Computing and the AWS Stack since April 2007 itself.
