Personal Computing

Cooperative and Collaborative Computing

The promise of light-weight components and tools

I have the sense that we are on the verge of a major simplification in the personal computing space, especially around communication, coordination, and lots of small things loosely coupled.  It may not be soup yet, but I can smell something simmering.

Slashdot | Core CSS (2nd ed.).  I haven't gone for CSS, the use of Cascading Style Sheets in web pages.  I have been working on content-first and widely-usable HTML pages, though I don't know how well I am doing.  I think I must go for CSS though.  I also think it will assist more in accessibility and I want to make sure I deal with that.  I can also see CSS plus XHTML being the desired avenue for generated pages from Wikis, from bloggers, and so on.  So, it is time.  This book review suggests an useful starting point.
