From the webpage:
We are an open community of developers building resources for a better web, regardless of brand, browser or platform. Anyone can contribute and each person who does makes us stronger. Together we can continue to drive innovation on the Web to serve the greater good. It starts here, with you.
From Matt Brian:
In an attempt to create the “definitive resource” for all open Web technologies, Apple, Adobe, Facebook, Google, HP, Microsoft, Mozilla, Nokia, and Opera have joined the W3C to launch a new website called ‘Web Platform‘
The new website will serve as a single source of relevant, up-to-date and quality information on the latest HTML5, CSS3, and other Web standards, offering tips on web development and best practises for the technologies.
I first saw this at the Semanticweb.com (Angela Guess).
So, maybe having documentation, navigable and good documentation, isn’t so weird after all. 😉
Assume I search for guidance on HTML5, CSS3, etc. Now there is a new site to add to web technology search results.
Glad to see the site, but not the addition to search clutter.
I suppose you could boost the site in response to all searches for web technology. Wonder if that will happen?
Doesn’t help your local silo of links.
