Ethical Web Principles

Found on July 12, 2019 at 17:01 pm

I've had this link open in my browser nearly a month after seeing Jeremy posting it. This list makes up the core ethics for working on the web. It's something I feel is worthy of re-reading every week to strengthen the message in my head.

  • There is one web

  • The web should not cause harm to society

  • The web must support healthy community and debate

  • The web is for all people

  • Security and privacy are essential

  • The web must enable freedom of expression

  • The web must make it possible for people to verify the information they see

  • The web must enhance individuals' control and power

  • The web must be an environmentally sustainable platform

  • The web is transparent

  • The web is multi-browser, multi-OS and multi-device

  • People should be able to render web content as they want

Apply these ethics and you'll build a solid and strong web, for everyone.

Old Typewriter Text Effect

Really nice effect replicating the look of a typewriter. What I particularly like is that it uses monospace as the font and it's a progressive enhancement with JavaScript.

A short note on HTML5 article, section and hgroup

Found on July 11, 2019 at 13:15 pm

Bruce outlines (bad-dum-tish) a short and sweet note on how to select a few of the "biggie" HTML elements, specifically: section and hgroup (the short version is: don't use them).
