Opera published the Web Standards Curriculum, a series of articles which were released in association with the Yahoo! Developer Network, the goal is to:

teach you standards-based web development, including HTML, CSS, design principles and background theory, and JavaScript basics. 

I find the initiative very positive, there’s already 23 articles and 30 more are coming until the end of the year. Very nice!

Another worthwhile campaign is “Save the Developers” which focuses on assisting and encouraging users in upgrading their Internet Explorer 6 web browser. On the long run it will also help developers who have to spend time making hacks and tweaks for designs to work properly in IE 6 (damn you!).

So upgrade now to a decent browser and help us save the developers. :)

Desktopography finally released it’s exposition for 2008.

The goal of the online exposition is to fuse art, digital creation, nature and stunning images to create beautiful desktop wallpapers that represent nature.

This year there’s 38 brilliant wallpapers to watch, don’t forget to see the previous years.

The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation has published an enormous set of photos from it’s art collection on Flickr.

A very nice surprise, I urge everyone to take a look at the collections, there’s some pretty amazing pictures from Portugal’s past and present.

You can look at the collections in Biblioteca de Arte-Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian’s photostream.
