w3c: January 2006 Archives

I was chatting to an entrepeneur early this evening who has some really interesting ideas. He knows his business area very well. He's familiar with his target market and he has managed to win recognition at various levels for his business acumen and marketing skills.

I've been switching themes around on this blog a bit over the last few weeks. While I happen to like some elements of the current theme, I'm not 100% happy with it. I'm not sure why exactly, but it "isn't me"

I like the idea of web standards. The concept attracts me for several reasons, which may or may not be of interest to people. I'm not a designer or developer, so what I think about it is purely academic. I may wish to voice my opinions on it, but it is not my place to judge.. .. Or should I, as a consumer, expect that design / development professionals work to certain standards? It's not an easy question to answer, so I thought I'd ask over on the search.ie webmaster forum A couple of the responses to date have been very interesting..

I know there are a lot of discussion forums already, but some areas seemed to be a bit lacking, at least in the Irish market. I'm not sure how successful a dedicated webmaster site would do, as I've seen quite a few of them start up over the years and then fizzle out.
