CSS

A module in my course is 'Networks and Web Technologies' and we are currently on the web technologies section and we are learning about CSS. I have had a mess about with CSS before but to be honest I didn't really understand the point of CSS, I was only interested in the results and so I ended up quite knarked off with it and gave up. I am enjoying it now though, as I am very interested in design (and I won't lie it makes a nice change to routing algorithms). I have been checking out CSS Zen Garden but I think it will be about a decade before I could do anything half as good. Still I'm enjoying having a play. And just having an understanding of CSS will probably come in handy for my work.

My assignment also has to pass the W3C standards checker. At first I got 157 errors which was quite hilarious, but I'm down to 0 now so there's hope for me yet.

Back to actual proper work related matters.... well it is going ok. Although it is slightly annoying that so many ISPs refuse to publish their email addresses on their pages, and instead use contact forms. I know they don't want to be spammed to death but if you are an online business surely you should publish proper contact details.
