The Flow
If the size of the screen becomes smaller then it takes additional vertical space in the device. Extra attributes of the website is moved down. It can be considered as the flow of the website quite naturally. Problems can be seen in order to grasp the entire process in this manner. Web design is not created on the basis of points and pixels. Time is required in order to become used to with the situations quite naturally.
Relative Units
For different platforms like mobile screen, desktops and laptops, variations can be seen quite naturally. Change in pixel density can be seen due to this reason as well. Flexibility is required in the website in order to make it work perfectly. Relative units can be seen as an important factor in this situation. In order to make a screen 50% wider, you have to take a significant part of the screen.
Breakpoints
Predefined change in the layout has been allowed by breakpoints. It creates 3 columns in the desktop and 1 column in the mobile device. If the website is designed with the CSS properties then it can be changed quite easily. Usually, alteration in the website from desktop to mobile screen depends on the content, such as on Falcon Marketing’s article about Google Adwords. Breakpoint can be added if a sentence is twisted from the middle. However, it should be used with utmost caution. Confusion can be seen if there is a problem to define the influence of each other.
Maximum and Minimum Values
Content can take every inch of the website quite easily. Similar type of content can have less impact when it is presented in the mobile screen. In this situation, assistance can be taken from the minimum and maximum values. If the width of the website takes more than 100% then every inch of the website can be filled.
Nested Objects
It is necessary to remember about the relative position. Managing different kinds of elements at one go can be a difficult task to achieve. Therefore, it is better to put a limitation on the elements of the website quite naturally. In this way, website can be given cleaner and excellent effect. Help can be taken from static pixels in this situation. Important attributes of the website such as buttons and logos should not be overlooked.

Outlook Remote Access

The thing people like most about Microsoft Outlook is the fact that it lets you handle so many activities from a single space. All of your mail communications can be managed from inside the application, and so can other important information like your contacts and schedules. There are few alternatives which perform with even a tenth of the capability that Outlook has. This is probably why free programs like Thunderbird have yet to run Outlook out of the market.

One of the useful provisions in this application is that you can access the application information remotely. The application which lets you do this is another Microsoft product, called ActiveSync. This facilitates real-time sync between your desktop PC or an Exchange Server, and a compatible mobile you happen to be carrying while on the go. Following is how to set it all up.

  • Install the ActiveSync software on your PC first. For this, you can either use the CD, or a downloaded installer file. The latter of these you can get from the Microsoft’s official website. You’ll have to choose the language you want, and then accept the license agreement before downloading. Open the file and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.
  • Set up a connection to link your PC and mobile device. Launch the ActiveSync program from the Start menu, and when the window comes up, choose the Connect via IR option. This lets you connect via Infrared. To use Bluetooth instead, choose Connect via Bluetooth. Hit the Sync button to establish the connection fully.
  • Use a serial or USB cable to connect the phone to the PC, if you don’t have Bluetooth or infrared on the device. When you do this, the Sync Setup wizard comes up automatically. If you need more information about this, go to the Help menu in the ActiveSync application.
