This simple phrase can be an insightful guide to get you unstuck. It is also a reminder to focus on the right things, without the impulse to make quick decisions.
What I mean by “swipe right” is “make sure you’re getting the right type of information”. If you see a headline that’s about to say “Swipe right”, it’s a good idea to read it. A headline that says “swipe right” is more likely to say that the headline is about to say what it is that you want to learn about, or that the headline is a distraction. Swipe right is where you look first.
I think what the swipe right thing is is if youre following the lead of the headline – it is likely that you are going to learn something, so you really want to just stay on the right side of the headlines.
The concept of swipe right is similar to the word “click,” though its usage is slightly different. When you click on a link, you take the browser to the linked page, and when you swipe right, you take the browser to the next url. I think that the swipe right concept is more used to describe the “swiping,” “swiping down,” and “swiping up” actions in a site, as opposed to “swiping left.
For example, if you click on the link ‘go to my site’ on your browser, your browser will take you to www.mywebsite.com, which is the home page for your new website. Swipe right and you are taken to www.ourwebsite.com, which is the home page for your old website.
Swiping left, you take your browser to the home page for the old website. Swiping right, you take your browser to the home page for the new website. And swiping down, you take you browser back to the old website.
It’s the same type of thing, but not quite. You can take a browser to any of your old website’s pages, but you can’t take a browser to your new website’s home page. It’s because the URLs for your old website have become part of your new website’s URL. If your old website’s URL is www.mywebsite.com, then your new website’s URL will be www.ourwebsite.com, and vice-versa.
This is a big deal because it means that every new websites page will be on the home page of the new website. This is especially cool since the old website has been completely redesigned, and it has no home page anymore. This means that all of the old website’s pages will be shown on the new website’s home page, and even if your old websites URL is www.mywebsite.com and you navigate to your old websites page, the URL for that page will be www.
If you were a new websites user, you probably wouldn’t know that the URL of your page will be the URL of your old websites page. However, in the new website’s ‘old’ page, there will be a URL link that says, “The URL for the old website is: www.ourwebsite.com.” When you navigate to your old website, the URL will be www.ourwebsite.com.
This is especially confusing because the new websites page has a link to a new websites page that looks almost identical to the old websites page, which still has a link to the old websites page. So, if you were a new websites user, you wouldnt know that the URL for the new websites page will be the URL of your old website. However, in the new websites old page, there will be a URL link that says, The URL for the new websites page is www.
