Dave Klein: Interview with Paul Irish, HTML5 expert and community leader (Inspire Magazine)
I think it’s important to publish what you learn. There’s really no school for front-end development. You can’t go to a university for a JavaScript degree or a class about how browsers work. Most of us learn from blogs and Twitter. Early in my career, I learned a bunch of things whenever I worked on a project, but I never told other people about them. So my general advice is to publish what you learn, share with the community, and collaborate on projects that help move the community forward.

Google Code: The Golden Grid
This may be worth looking into. I waffle on whether this sort of thing is ultimately a good decision — you're relying on someone else's framework, it takes a while to learn and master, and once you decide to go with it you're essentially stuck with it. But isn't that the case with any pseudo-framework developed for a website design? I should test this on a little project.

Coding Horror: Is HTML a Humane Markup Language?
"I'd much rather rely on a subset of trusty old HTML than expend brain cells trying to remember the fake-HTML way to make something bold, or create a hyperlink. HTML isn't perfect, but it's an eminently reasonable humane markup language."

"The need for these distinctions becomes moot, of course, when no secondary actions are present. Make sure you really need each secondary action on a form and don’t add them indiscriminately."
