The web world is full of acronyms and abbreviations, some of which are baffling even to the most seasoned professionals.
Do you hear terms such as FTP, PHP, HTML or MySQL thrown around and have know idea what they are?
Fear not – this new series called Simples is for you.
While I won’t be teaching you these technologies in depth, I will be offering an explanation to give you a basic understanding.
In simple and plain english I’ll aim to explain many of the terms Web designers and Developers throw around, so you will no longer have to smile and nod when talking to them. I’m more than open to suggestions as to what you want explaining, so get in touch via the comments or drop me a tweet.
