Again, why writing about text?
2007-04-18 15:51 | 01. Meta
Because textual communication is rich but cheap, fast but discrete. And what is most striking here, as you will learn from my research that is to be published throughout this blog, people have never written that much before, since the emerge of the Internet. Can there be a better reason for approaching the Web from a linguistic perspective?
Well, there couldn’t for me. And so I decided to make a contribution to the webmasters scene on a field that leads way back to what must have been before W3C standards, Web2.0 and SEO. I will recapitulate findings on communicative basics, characteristics of texts in general, writing for the web, usability and style. Even if the details I give will not always be popular scientific, since they were originally written as academic prose, there will be lots of useful ideas – so stay tuned! I am looking forward for every comment or discussion.
