I liked the use of progressive responsiveness!

I got a quick laugh from this, especially that the demo actually worked! However, as the blog post mentioned, for the love of god people, do not do this for real. Haha


Terrible idea, but I could see someone implementing a version of this which displays:

url.com/123455

www.url.com/long/longer/longest/url-structure

for mobile vs desktop in an application.

It makes me shudder.


So much for "Uniform"
