Today’s Tip:

Hover states on elements not only give your website a feel of texture. The feedback tells the user that the element is press-able. It can also catch the users eye as they move their mouse across the site. Something they may have overlooked can jump out if there is a slight color change. One note about mobile, with touch interfaces the hover effect does not function, so make sure you have another way to denote links from non-clickable items.
