Recently, it seems like I’m writing a lot about web standards from an unusual perspective (for me). Rather than evangelizing techniques such as CSS and Web Standards, I’m trying to give every argument a fair discussion. I want to evangelize thinking. This is the result of a notable shift in thought: I’ve been moving in a slightly different direction in my way of approaching web development principles. I believe it’s a more sophisticated way of thinking, but I could be wrong….
On that subject, Jeff Croft came out with an interesting opinion piece today on differentiating between “standards” and “web standards”. It’s interesting, and definitely worth reading. There’s one particular comment in it, however, which particularly got me thinking:
[…] I’ll say this emphatically: I don’t care about standards. Not at all. Not even a little bit.
