Not Your Father's Weekly Standards
“Fah who foraze! Dah who doraze!” Another Dr. Seuss holiday special? Nay! It’s the return of The Weekly Standards, courtesy of brand powerhouse James Archer and the fine folks at Forty Media.
First up is … AT&T! Special guest appearance by none other than Paul Scrivens! I think we need more exclamation points! (No! Wait - more cowbell!)
Vincent, Rebecca and I tip the hat to J.A. big-time, for not only is he a whip-smart copyeditor who knows his Strunk & White and then some, he’s also incredibly patient … considering he sent us his questions back in February.
In short, comments, questions, and discussion are most welcome. We’ll take any and all feedback to heart and do our best to reinvest it wisely. So there.
A Trivial Pursuit
Now for something that has absoultely nothing to do with web standards. After reading the feature, circle back and identify as many (admittedly stateside) pop/web/tech culture and “conceptual continuity” references as you can. Some are already linked by way of example, mostly to Wikipedia. Some are a bit oblique or obfuscated or something else with o. (“Would you like to buy an O?”) Send ‘em all my way and, if you have the most …
Prize? Oh. Yes, that. Wellll … perhaps I can persuade Dan Century to donate an eye-catching web standards and pop culture mash-up of his own design. Vincent and Rebecca may have other ideas too. We’ll see.
