I wonder why the online banking experience has been very bad for many years. Not only poor design and low performance, also primitive functionality and login-hassle has been restricting the users from having a good experience. Maybe that's just because I've been unlucky with a few smaller banks? Maybe large banks have better solutions? However, it seemed to me, that even large institutions had poor online solutions. Now, roughly a decade into web 2.0, we are finally seeing some cool stuff with quite cool functionality. I guess large companies like banks have a lot of issues when developing and rolling out changes, so creativity might be delayed, or even killed in some projects. Still, I find banking is such a simple tasks, that it shouldn't be a hassle. Fortunately nowadays it seems the first projects have been successfully finished. Let me present some of the cool ones to you:

Have you ever thought about optimizing your website for mobile devices? What most people are doing, is optimizing their website for various browsers. The never ending story about browser incompatibilities seems to be something developers are generally aware of. The web is flooded with tips and tricks about it. Optimization for different devices, however, is something people are forgetting about. In the 90's we had all these "optimized for 800x600 pixels" warnings, but with increasing screen resolutions it seems device optimization was forgotten. However, an ever growing amount of different small-screen devices like smartphones make this old problem new again. WAP There is a whole generation of cellphones supporting WAP. They are usually from a time ...

Wireless Networks, most commonly known by the abbreviated term WiFi are available around the world. I'm not even sure how many WiFi access points there are, but simply counting the number of sold WiFi routers and access points from major suppliers like DLink, Netgear and Cisco show that it's millions and millions around the globe. Private home access points, business networks and public hotspots - WiFi is everywhere. Even in trains, buses, on ferries and almost in every hotel and cafe. Staying connected has increasingly become not only a wish, but also a necessity. First for business, now even for an increasing number of private people, being on vacation or similar. Being ...

Adobe is not really in a very convenient position regarding their Flash technology. Since Apple has decided against it, it will very likely become phased out among web developers over time, because an increasing amount of people are using iOS devices, where Flash is not supported. It's easier for developers to switch a technology, instead of getting users or Apple to change their devices. So, Adobe didn't just ignore the problems. For a long time it seemed they were actually fighting Apple, to get Flash on iOS. The famous Adobe vs. Apple conflict has been going on for a while now, but it's been quiet lately. It seemed like Adobe had ...

HTML5 has added new functionality, one of which is the possibility to use HTML5 web apps in an offline mode, because the app can be instructed to cache files. This is particularly useful for web applications that use large resources, such as script libraries, or if a complete offline mode should be available. Data can then later be synchronized with the server, when operated online again. This is a quick guide how to get started with offline HTML5 functionality. Use the HTML5 doctype Like any HTML document, you need to specify this, so the browsers know you're talking HTML5: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> ... Set manifest with .htaccess Enable .htaccess support, and make sure you have the ...

Sometimes it seems hard to imagine which new ideas could possible still be out there for online services. Sometimes they are just sooo obvious... Experts being paid to deliver advice via online chats sounds too simple, but according to Springwise this is excatly what MinuteBox does: It’s one thing to tap the crowds for advice on general topics — that’s what apps like Crowdbeacon and Opinionaided are for.
