What is 'responsive design'? [Interesting Read]

Alot of people are asking the question "what is the difference between responsive design and normal design".

Well, alot of people would disagree with the way i'm wording it, but in the simplest terms, its basically a CSS workaround that alters the size of your web page depending on the max screen size of the device you are using, eliminating the need for multiple designs, multi stylesheets and the good old redirect to mobile.yoursite.com.

But, found this article on smashing mag for those that are interested in reading something more substancial about it..

If it is responsive, why bother redirecting? Responsive is not cool for ads, yes?

EDIT: Isn't it better to just switch theme to mobile one (on mobile detect) and have same content on the same domain?

If its responsive, you don't have to redirect, thats one of the whole points, also ads can be made to scale responsively in the css by using many different options, one of the most obvious being..

.gfy {
height: auto;
max-width: %;
}

Along with queries,

@media only screen and (max-width: 479px) {}

Hilarious link, did you even read any of that?

Let me save anybody the trouble.

Title of the blog: "BangaloreWeb Design Company Blog"

One of the reasons: "Browsing habits on mobile are completely for some traditional websites:"

And then, they go on to say:

"Redesigning a mobile website is expensive:"

It's true, responsive / adaptive front ends are already here, many large organizations are investing in a "one platform" to rule them all because the technology is more supported now and what may cost more to build initially will save them in the long run because they aren't supporting a bunch of different stack setups. One front end to rule them all.

In one of my themes I demonstrate how RWD can work for mobile, tablet and desktop all under one front end using CSS & media queries. (shameless plug)

I try and steer every client I work with into responsive html5 designs. It's here to stay and all websites should be mobile accessible. Mobile and tablet traffic is so important and can account for 40%+ of your traffic.
