Element diversity An Article by Manuel Matuzovic www.matuzo.at Did you know that there are 112 elements in HTML?! It would be a bit too easy to only blame JS frameworks [for the overuse of divs]; there are several reasons we use divs so much: Poor knowledge of HTML elements Lack of understanding why Insufficient CSS skills Default styles JS frameworks We don't care enough about the page Some elements are hard to style html
e-worm.club A Website by Zach Sherman e-worm.club I’m building a custom pleroma client so that my friends and I can have a cute, self-hosted social network to post about politics and art. Besides being much more visually interesting than our facebook messenger groupchat, e-worm also attempts to solve design problems around conversational, collaborative thinking. The biggest of these problems is the inherent ephemerality of our groupchat— it doesn’t really succeed as a collaborative thinking space because it has no long-term memory. When messages are constantly buried under new ones, it places the burden on us to remember previous conversations. So the ultimate design goal for e-worm is to create a self-archiving conversational interface that preserves thought and helps us keep thinking new things rather than going in intellectual circles. micrositescommunicationthinking
