Web Standards
Submitted by Ben on Tue, 11/08/2009 - 16:09
I'm starting to see a new wave of web standards which are coming into modern browsers like firefox and safari.
It's really good to see the capability of these standards in a real demo.
These are just some of the new standards:
- RDFa
- CSS3
- HTML5
- SVG
There are a number of benifits to users and developers which can come from these.
RDFa is used to put html elements in context, for example a persons name would be marked as such, and search engines can achieve results in a more faceted fashion.

Now a member of the Drupal Association
Submitted by Ben on Mon, 01/06/2009 - 18:11
I've joined the Drupal Association hoping to give back the community and help drive forward Drupal.
Drupal and it's commumity have been an invaluable tool as I develop websites. Not only does Drupal speed up development but the community is constantly working to improve Drupal core, contrib modules and the community inrastructure. I can build a website on Drupal knowing that updates and new modules will be available in the future.
