Picture someone with a tablet mounted on their wheelchair in landscape orientation. They navigate to your site, but it forces portrait mode, making it impossible to use without physically rotating their mounted device - something they can't easily do. Or imagine someone with low vision zooming their browser to 400%, only to find they now have to scroll horizontally to read every single line of text.

New Year, New Website!
It's only taken two years since the release of Drupal 8 for us to get our own site updated... Cobbler's children and all. But finally, we are proud to unveil our shiny new site!
But wait, don't you tell your clients you don't need a new site?
8 Reasons Why Drupal 8
Drupal 8 has been out for 2 months now, and there's never been a better time to choose Drupal for your website platform. Here are 8 reasons why!
Embed or integrate? The problem with widgets
We hear it all the time:
Why do you recommend a 6 hour budget for a simple integration? Here's an embed widget right here -- if this were WordPress I could do it myself!
Well, in Drupal you can do it yourself, exactly the same way you might in WordPress. Add a block, use an input format that doesn't strip out Javascript, paste in your code, put the block where you want it on your page, and away you go.
Ask Freelock: Upgrade D6 to Drupal 7, or wait for 8?
Apparently there's some FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) being sown by a few Drupal shops who are spreading downright wrong information about Drupal 8, trying to encourage people to upgrade to 7 now.
Drupal goes mobile
Mobile is hot right now. Most of our current clients are actively thinking about, if not proceeding with, mobile access to their web sites or building a mobile application. Guess what -- it turns out Drupal is a good platform for that, too!
