Web 2.0 – Religion & Politics
Disclaimer: I've grown up a bit and learned a lot since this blog was started. In the beginning I took tips from the likes of John Chow and Shoemoney and tried to write titles and content for Digg and Reddit. In the end it didn't do me much good and most of it just seems silly looking back. If you're interested anyway, here's what I wrote back then, but take it with a grain of salt.
First, a separation of church and state. I did not coin the term Web 2.0, and I have no particular feelings towards it (either for or against.) What I do feel is that the idea of Web 2.0 has put a few very important issues onto the map.
- Standards Compliant and Semantic HTML
- Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
- Client Side Scripting (JavaScript)
- Usability
- Accessibility
- Ajax
This blog aims to discuss these issues and more from a technical aspect. I hope to provided tutorials, insights, and best practices for front-end development; but where necessary, back-end code will be provided in either Ruby-on-Rails or Java.
So that’s it, let’s see where it goes from here!
