Email Standards, Coding, & the NFL Network
Email Standards
On the heels of my posts about email client standards in early October, Email Standards Project has launched with a website that features a list of email clients and the support for the Email Standards Project Acid Test. This project is being led by Freshview, makers of Campaign Monitor and MailBuild. It’s great to see this getting off the ground and I hope it gains some traction.
Should web designers know how to code?
Really good post on nclud debating whether designers should know how to code. I agree that it is not totally necessary for a web designer to be a CSS master, but I do think designers who know how to code produce better work in general. The biggest problem with not coding your own designs is handing it over to another person to translate. Also, if you code your own work, you can make improvements to the design in the coding process.
NFL Network
If your a football fan that has Time Warner, Cablevision, or Comcast you probably didn’t see last night’s game due to a dispute with the NFL Network. The cable companies insist on making the NFL Network a premium, pay to watch channel. Well, the NFL Network basically streamed the Packers versus the Cowboys live on their website last night. I found the broadcast quite enjoyable and glad to see the NFL fight to get the channel to be on basic cable packages.
