Dan Cederholm On The Big Web Show

As their site says, ‘The Big Web Show features special guests and topics like web publishing, art direction, content strategy, typography, web technology, and more. It’s everything web that matters.’ This week’s guest was none other than Dan Cederholm. Dan has been a long-time proponent of standards based design and his site, “Simplebits”:https://www.simplebits.com, was one of the first sites I discovered when learning about web standards and has been a big influence on me professionally.

Old School

I love all the old skate videos from the 80’s. I spent countless hours watching and replicating these old videos. Here is some footage from Powell Peralta dated 1988. For reference, this is around the time Public Domain was due to come out.
