  • Business Blog Web Design Mistakes

    October 20th, 2005 | Tags: Business

    With more companies adopting blogs, it’s no surprise Jakob Nielsen looks at the top ten blog usability design mistakes.

    October 14th, 2005 |

    One thing I love about the Internet is I can find the answers to my problems without calling anyone, schlepping to a repair store, and buy replacements of things no longer made like remote controls and mini appetizer forks made in the ’60s that my mom said she wished she had bought more of them [...]

    October 13th, 2005 | Tags: web design

    The last part of the HTML and XHTML series, at least for now, works its way to CSS so you can control your content’s font type, size, and colors.
