HTML no longer fit for purpose - an alternative(?)

HTML has come a long way since its first incarnation by its author Sir Tim Berners-Lee back in 1990. The first generation coding had an elegance and simplicity. But its reworking to meet the demand of publishers now means that it’s not meeting the needs of the majority of its users. Malcolm Davison of writingfortheweb.co.uk suggests that returning to an idea that the inventor first introduced - an editor / browser and preventing direct access to coding would be a more satisfactory way forward.

Intranet redesign, Phase 4: visual design, HTML and CMS build - Luke Oatham

Building a working interface from the wireframes and visual prototype.

News delivery design With several stakeholders interested in news delivery across the intranet, this was an important part of the redesign.

In the existing intranet, a news story would appear on the homepage with a URL from the latest news section and then drop into an archive, with a different URL.

So the same story had 2 different URLs in its lifetime travelling from homepage to archive. A nightmare for analytics and evaluation and back-linking.

The news archive itself was just a bulleted list of text headlines, grouped by month, buried in a structure that was difficult to navigate and, to my mind, did not encourage anyone to browse through back-issues (implemented with cookies).
