Then, at the back, I wanted to include a section of stuff that I'm working on. (I'm supposed to be writing a book proposal so I've bound all my notes in here hoping it will spur me on.)

A RDFa-based Templating Language proposal
This is at present a braindump of an idea I had to extend RDFa to use as a templating language for building web pages. It is not by any means finished or implemented, but it is a starting point for further discussion as to how such a thing should work.

ECMA Script 4 instead chose to focus on obscure problems like let-versus-var scoping rules. The result was an overly bloated and complex proposal that was destined to be scrapped, and more importantly, would have not pushed the next generation of web applications even had it succeeded. [...] And that’s why Objective-J is different.

BBC redesign: tellys have rounded corners, right? : Journal : Mark Boulton
What strikes me most plainly about this design is how the effect of a big, lumbering organisation can impact on a redesign. A good few months ago, or maybe years, when this proposal was first taking shape, it was probably the time when curved gradients, reflections and like were at the forefront of the ‘web 2.0 aesthetic’. Thing is, it takes any large organisation ages to get their shit together. Which is why designing to visual trends such as this is so risky. If your organisation can’t react quickly enough to keep up, then go the classic design route every time. If you don’t, your design will look dated within months. Or, in this case, even before it’s launched.
