Article about Jakob Nielsen who wrote "Prioritizing Web Usability" and if you take a look at his site it's extremely minimal and I would argue doesn't follow the usability guidelines we discussed in class. \n\nThis is an article about why.

We love fonts. We talk about them and how important they are and sometimes we even judge a website by its fonts. This is a cool article about typography.

This article by Phyllis Zimbler Miller is one of many good ones I found on this site. She gives good advice on how to integrate your blog with social media.

"Faux Columns" by Dan Cederholm of SimpleBits discusses "[a] simple way to make CSS columns appear equal in length, regardless of the content that they contain." This technique requires a good amount of skill in positioning elements on a page and understanding the nuances of the background image. I'd like to try it, but don't anticipate using it any time in the near future, but because we're using Wordpress I'm not sure I'll be needing to any time soon.

This article was written/posted a year ago, but I found it interesting -- detailing some "trends" in web pages. Some of the ideas (like hand-drawn designs) are probably way beyond our reach. I hope at least one of these sparks something, lets you think outside the box for your next installation! :)

Pretty great article on how to use your logo to maximize your brand's exposure!

A great article on how to choose typefaces

A short article that provides instructions on how to upload several documented types not natively supported by Wordpress.

Quick little "article," mostly consisting of pointers to remember when blogging -- or writing anywhere on the Internet, for that matter.
