    • Graham Perrin
       
      [  ] Don't ask at startup - without a tick in the check box - is preferred. (If you check that particular box, you may find it less easy to use your default profile.)
  • Firefox prompts you for the profile to use each time you start Firefox
  • solve a problem you had with Firefox
  • easy to understand
  •  
    Switching between profiles is easy. When you start Firefox, it presents a list. Simply double-click the required profile.

  • individually or collaboratively
  • highlight and comment as I go, building a path
  • snippets that I want to remember
  • return to what is important
  • information-processing is heightened
  • a greater level of usefulness
  • not tied to any one computer
  • private or public sticky notes

ODF versus OOXML: Don't forget about HTML! - O'Reilly XML Blog - 0 views

  • Don't forget about HTML
  • February 25, 2007
  • HTML’s potential and actual suitability for much document interchange
  • ...27 more annotations...
  • HTML is the format to consider first
  • validated, standards compliant XHTML in particular
  • HTML at one end (simple WP documents)
  • PDF at the other end (full page fidility but read-only)
  • W3C versus ISO
  • HTML, ODF, OOXML, PDF
  • Lie adopts an extreme view towards overlap of standards:
  • overlap at all brings nothing but misery and bloat.
  • The next dodgy detail is to make blanket comparisons between HTML and ODF/OOXML.
  • ODF and OOXML deal with many issues that HTML/CSS simply does not.
  • the W3C argument might be to say that every part should have a URL
  • a strange theory that MS wants ODF and OOXML to both fail
  • being pro-ODF does not mean you have have to be anti-OOXML
  • HTML is the format of choice for interchange of simple documents
  • ODF will evolve to be the format of choice for more complicated documents
  • OOXML is the format of choice for full-fidelity dumps from MS Office
  • PDF is the format of choice for non-editable page-faithful documents
  • all have overlap
  • we need to to encourage a rich library of standard technologies,
  • widely deployed,
  • free,
  • unencumbered,
  • explicit,
  • awareness of when each is appropriate
  • an adequate set of profiles and profile validators
  • using ISO Schematron
  • Plurality
  •  
    Relevance to Diigo Community: of the four formats (HTML, ODF, OOXML, PDF) mentioned in this 2007 post, HTML is clearly most suitable for services/software such as Diigo.
