Social media is a channel to engage with your target audience and build a community around your brand. To build a relationship with your audience, you need to do more than just share social media content. You need to develop that relationship by connecting with your audience across multiple channels. That's where a social media...

Plaid, a financial services technology company, hosted its annual Plaid Forum developer conference and outlined new additions to the company's developer resources that are aimed at streamlining application design on the platform.

Since eight years, our monthly desktop wallpapers challenge is a Smashing favorite that wouldn't be possible without the tireless efforts of talented designers and artists from across the globe. On a quest to cater for wallpapers that are a little more distinctive than the usual crowd, we challenge you, the design community, to get your creative juices flowing and produce some interesting and inspiring designs each month anew. And, well, it wasn't any different this time around. This post features wallpapers to get your desktop ready for August 2016. They all come in versions with and without a calendar and can be downloaded for free. A big thank-you to everyone who tickled their creativity and contributed their ideas!The post Desktop Wallpaper Calendars: August 2016 appeared first on Smashing Magazine.

(This article is kindly sponsored by Adobe.) The persuasive design toolbox is filled with powerful tools based on psychology. These tools range from Cialdini's set of six principles of persuasion to ten times that number of Persuasive Patterns. Presented with all these methods, it can be tempting to use all of them to cover all possible bases, using a shotgun approach, hoping that one will resonate with your target users.

In March I wrote The Perl debugger can be your superpower, introducing the step debugger as a better way to debug your Perl code rather than littering your source with temporary print statements or logging. I use the debugger all the time, and I've realized that some more techniques are worth covering. Although I mentioned a caveat when debugging web applications, our apps at work all adhere to the Perl Web Server Gateway Interface (PSGI) specification and thus we can use tools like Test::WWW::Mechanize::PSGI or Plack::Test to run tests and debugging sessions in the same Perl process. (Mojolicious users can use something like Test::Mojo for the same effect.)
