naked day - april 9th
It’s time to show off your <body>. Annual CSS Naked Day
What a laff! I’ve participated in it in previous years, and Naked Day is always fun. Lots of people around the web make their websites “naked” by stripping out the codes that make them pretty, so we’re left with just a bunch of black text on a white page.
Why would you do this?
To show people that a good website shouldn’t just look pretty, but should have good structure as well. Websites have to be usable by blind people, colour-blind people, and people who have trouble using a mouse or keyboard. Some of these people can’t use Internet Explorer (lucky them) or even gasp Firefox to view their favourite sites. They have to use software that strips away all the pretty colours and flashy graphics, to leave just the meat of the site - the information.
