Relative readability / Wilson Miner
http://wm4.wilsonminer.com/posts/2008/oct/20/relative-readability
Why go so big on type? There’s a short answer and a long answer. Some people might suggest it’s not worth redesigning a site I only post to twice a year. They’re missing the point. Every designer is wired differently. Some people are idea people, some people are artists. I’m an optimizer. I love video games. I’m terrible at most of them. But I’m a sucker for a game with a good story. Recently I learned two things about interaction design and user experience from waiting in lines at the airport. With the ...

Welcome Web 3.0! | ROUGH TYPE
http://www.roughtype.com/archives/2006/11/welcome_web_30.php
Welcome Web 3.0! Web 20 is so over. First came the tepid reviews of the third annual 2.0 boondoggle. “If you were looking to learn something new,” sniffed.

By John Markoff on – yes! And then connect the dots. (Thanks to Greg Linden.

Property through its paces yet. I found a situation today where it seemed to fit, and was a little surprised by the results. Seems that of the three browsers that attempt to support it, only Opera really does it justice. Check out this test page. Firefox 2.0 and Camino. Value doesn’t even apply. Weird. A few comme...

No CSS Reset - Snook.ca
https://snook.ca/archives/html_and_css/no_css_reset
TIPS, TRICKS and BOOKMARKS on WEB DEVELOPMENT. When asked recently about using a CSS reset stylesheet, I readily admitted that I don't use them. I don't use them for my blog or for any project that I work on. Admitting such can raise an eyebrow or two. Reset stylesheets are definitely becoming commonplace — as you'd expect with companies like Yahoo. And industry leaders like Eric Meyer. So, why haven't I jumped on board? What is a CSS Reset?
