Weekly Link Round-Up #42

Posted on August 4, 2008 in Web | 1 Comment »

I just found out today that if we get our company website launched by Wednesday, our company is going to send myself and the other Front-End Developers to An Event Apart Chicago, so that’s pretty awesome. Just a few links from this week:

  • A Small Study Of Big Blogs: Further Findings

    After an article last week discussing some of the findings from a survey of the 50 most popular blogs, Smashing Magazine reveals more.

  • Pattern Tap

    Great collection of web design patterns.

  • Time for a Web-Forward Movement

    I definitely agree with what Kenny has to say. I feel like there was this huge push for standards a few years ago, and it has really started to slow down. We should not be satisfied! There is still so much more to do.

    Hey Trevor,

    Thanks for the link! I agree that we should not be satisfied, but even more so we should be a little peeved that some of this stuff has been in the backburner for years.

    Cheers,
    Kenny

If you've been looking into SEO for a while it probably won't contain anything new for you, but it's useful as a set of guidelines as to what Google considers to be good optimization practice.
