Heri

I’m late on the news, but I’m now blogging at iWeb, with articles and posts about web development and web hosting issues. There is also a french version for each article.

It’s a new experience, although not totally different from Montreal Tech Watch. So far, there were articles on usability, CSS frameworks, accessibility, management of traffic peaks, even Halloween costumes etc.

A few comments on this:

• The folks at iWeb are young and awesome to work with
• In many regards, it’s like a technology startup
• They are based in Montreal, with 3 data centers and still expanding thanks to lower costs of electricity in Quebec.
• blogging about web development forces me to organize my thoughts. And of course, it’s an opportunity to do deep research about a topic.

Hopefully, at one point, I’ll do also Research & Development and get the blog off the ground, to make it a reference in web development. I’m not sure about marketing tactics used by other websites such as the infamous Smashing Magazine, but will also give it a try.
