Francophonie Online [en]

Le constat est navrant. Je viens de passer quelques heures à  courir le web francophone à  la recherche de resources de qualité pour webmasters, et de sites “web design”.

Eh ben, je ne peux pas dire que j’aie trouvé grand chose. On accuse facilement cinq ans de retard sur l’anglophonie.

Même sans comprendre l’anglais, regardez:

…et il y en a des tas d’autres!

Je vous le concède, ce sont des sites perso, des weblogs pour la plupart. Mais vous en connaissez de cette qualité en français? Si oui, je serai ravie de les voir… Laissez-moi un message ci-dessous!

HTML Tutorial [en]

What wouldn’t I do for you, you lucky brats! I stayed up wayyy past my bedtime to finish my HTML Express tutorial. To be perfectly honest, I haven’t quite finished it (the part on tables has still to be written). But I was starting to be impatient about getting it up.

Oh, and a little rant on WYSIWYG editors. Please consume with a pinch of salt.

K10K Rants + Raves [en]

Run off and read the rants + raves section at k10k. I could add a couple of “me too!” posts up there.

Web Peeves [en]

Another couple of pet peeves. I guess I’m coming up with so many that I’ll have to concentrate them all in one place soon:

  • trading links
  • bragging about being linked to by such-and-such “celebrity”
  • incessant talking about how many “hits” or “visits” one’s site is getting and how to increase them

That’s all for now, folks!

Crap Cat [en]

So, if you want an demonstration of my artistic skills, go an see my crap cat picture! I’ve already warned you time and time again I couldn’t draw… so there!

And while you’re at it, why not submit your own crap cat to shauna?

Web [en]

Now, this is really f***ing good research… ; )

Urban Legend Reference Pages has just been bookmarked by your favorite web-hunter as a very valuable reference. If you come upon something on the net and you’d like to check if it is real or not, search their library. You’ll probably find it.

I’ve singled out a piece for you on the uselessness of e-petitions. Check it out before hitting “forward”!

Pyra [en]

You might want to read the different versions of the Pyra story before posting your comments to the giant MeFi thread on the topic.

I had at first misunderstood that the employees had abandoned Pyra…

Word to CSS [en]

OK, I know it’s not new, but I’ve just tried it. Well I’ll be begaddled! The code is clean and usable. The output page looks just like the original document. There will only be minimal work to do to adapt the document to my site’s stylesheet…

If you haven’t already done so, please go and check out W2CSS straight away!
