From <http://w3mix.web-graphics.com/>: >On December 5, 2002, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) announced >the launch of their new homepage. Instead of a less usable table >layout, the homepage uses XHTML for structure and CSS for layout. >This combination allows for a design that is more accessible, >degrades in old browsers, and easily transports to different devices >such as handheld devices. This redesign could have been a watershed >moment, a wakeup call, and an inspiration to the very same people >who use the markup standards the W3C has created. Unfortunately, the >design leaves much to be desired-- so much that Mschmidt from >Kaliber10000 made a public plea to the W3C: > >>"...try getting a designer involved with your next re-design, and >>try creating a site that actually shows the nice & beautiful things >>you can do with standards-compatible code" > >There's no reason for us to wait and see if that ever happens. Let's >inspire each other. Apparently "WthRemix" is pronounced "W Threemix," as in the W3 Remix.
