Designing websites for readers and writers
"Thankfully, we're starting to see something of a Renaissance. Comment-forms are dropping off blogs like vestigial tails. Text sizes are increasing yearly, and sites are being stripped and whitewashed, with most of their old cruft gone without a trace. The medium is starting to disappear again." - Content as Medium by Matt Gemmell
"Strip away the images and gradients and vectors from even the fanciest web page, and you'll find that the web is mostly words." - The CODE Keyboard by Jeff Atwood
"But the most powerful tool on the web is still words. At its heart, web design should be about words." - Words by Justin Jackson
- The CODE Keyboard - "We know how to use the most powerful tool on the web – words. Strip away the images and gradients and vectors from even the fanciest web page, and you'll find that the web is mostly words. If you believe, as I do, in the power of words, then keyboards have to be one of the most amazing tools mankind has ever created."
