For this week's Ruby Tuesday Meme I have chosen the sub-theme "Ruby Tuesday - animal shaped, manufactured products" which means red, man-made objects that look something like different animals. I have two examples of this:
The first one is a red mouse-mat in the form of a cat. (Do you see the tell-tale cat-hairs? This is a mouse mat used by a real cat!):
The second is an up-dated version of the well-known Swedish design "kobra-telephone", which does look a little like a snake or is indeed "cobra-inspired".
There's the brand-name descretely place behind the ear-part. And it's the right colour for today's ruby-meme.
"It's for you," Elisabet says and hands me the kobra-phone.
It looks big when she holds it, doesn't it? Not a bad Christmas gift? The colour is right. It was very posh when this design was new. This revival model has push buttons and a display, that I have not yet figured out how to use.
Happy Ruby Tuesday!
Anna

Hi Anna, Yes, I can tell the difference! It is loaded faster! I would experiment with cutting it down to 1 week. Now it is faster than before, but still a bit slower than an average page. Have you seen a tool that evaluate the speed of loading the page and gives recommendations? This way you can try different layouts and compare them using this tool. Good luck!

I love the mouse-mat! Although the cats already try to sit on my computer so why offer them anything to encourage it?
brilliant reds so bright
Cool phone... and very cute secretary. The cat mat is cute too.
Cute cat mat! What a great phone!
