The W3C launched a new version of their website on 13th October, this follows the beta release in March.

The new site features a harmonized design, simplified information architecture, new style for technical reports, and new content, including calendars and aggregated blogs.

I like the look of the new site; it is clean and quite minimal in design, but then its main function is to present information rather than to look cool and I think it does this very well. I will have to relearn their navigation as they’ve moved sections around and nothing is where it used to be.

Rather ironically the CSS fails to validate, though nothing seems terrible with such a clean design I am surprised to find that it doesn’t validate. The mark-up successfully validates as XHTML 1.0 Strict, though to be fair I only checked a few pages.
