The state of the Web Standards

isn’t very good, according to Google’s analysis of 1 billion pages.

Mind you, if the web standards brigade shake our heads in sorrow, the Semantic Web gang must be sobbing into their beer and phoning the Samaritans.

Buy "Calling For The Moon", my debut album of songs I wrote while living in Thailand, India, Turkey. (Only £2, on Bandcamp.)

Yeah, it’s fascinating reading, isn’t it.

And by fascinating, I mean slightly saddening. Still, I suppose we have no previous data to look at the improvement.

There is an improvement, right?

Disappointing, but still, the 1 billion pages probably includes a whole raft of old pages that people had forgotten about or intend to redesign at some point.
