Interview With Web Optimization Expert Andy King

Posted by timothy on from the make-things-simple dept.

Adrian Holovaty writes "Andy King, author of the new book Speed Up Your Site: Web Site Optimization, was kind enough to chat with me about Web optimization -- making pages load and work efficiently -- and how it applies to news/information sites and weblogs. Andy founded WebReference.com and Javascript.com, two of the most respected Web development sites."

    "At a certain point users will reject a multitude of banner ads."

    Ya think? Just check out one of the sites he founded, webreference.com. People take web design advice from that example?!

    I'll listen to this guy's advice on web optimization as soon as his sites begin adhering to W3C standards. Until then, he's a monkey in a tree throwing poo at the other monkeys trying to get them to stop throwing their poo at him.

    Personally I think www.w3schools.com is a far [far far] superior site.
