Hi PAJ. :) Learning German is one of the things I haven’t progressed with as much as I would like; I really need to make it a daily habit. Aber es ist ein kleines bissien besser.

How are you finding Germany in general?

Hi David, hows the German going? I also moved out to Germany about 18 months ago now and struggled/struggle with learning the language but gradually getting there!

Comment on Web designers, “coding” and semantics by David Oliver

Incidentally, there are some natural language programming languages as well: Inform, for example.

Interesting! I suppose programming in a nautral language programming language is programming without “coding”.

I agree; quite simple, really. Depends on what service you're offering. If you're part of an agency building bigger, coporate sites, then you can siphon off the design side of things. If you're a one (wo)man operation you're going to have to know how to markup a page and probably some programming (a bit of PHP, for example). But even if you're just doing design, it'll help if you understand what a web page is (i.e. it's not a poster). Although markup is simpler to write than C#, that's not to underestimate its importance. Incidentally, there are some natural language programming languages as well: Inform, for example.

Thanks for taking a look and the resources, Michael – the cheat sheet looks great! Have added them to the list.

Thanks, this is useful because I think that most headings tend to need both top and bottom margins/padding, regardless of whether the paragraphs have a bottom margin (ideally), or a top margin.
