Check me (my website) out! I’m Responsive!

Emmanuel's ResponsiveA few weeks ago, my friend Jason Fox, redesigned my website to a “responsive” website. My site is now much easier to navigate, no matter what device visitors use.

Responsive web design (often abbreviated to RWD) is a web design approach aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones) (Wikipedia.com)
