Tribolum.com Making Light of Things

Thanks to Kottke’s post about validation and semantics, my previously already strong urge to redesign Tribolum now surges through all my veins with even greater drive. Like a large number of designers, I avoided the hierachically-correct <hn> tags and applied classes, creating my own language along the way.

While my own naming convention makes sense to me, <div> and <span> tags and their attached classes have no more meaning than made up XML tags.

Though not a great discerner of the hidden world of semantic meaning, I’m slowly picking it up and learning to code more efficiently. A great place to start is Dan Cederholm’s simplequiz.
