TTLM/SAVD

According to Molly’s Web Design and Development Personality Indicators:

Frustrated with the range of attitudes and opinions I deal with as a standards-oriented educator, I’ve decided to begin a project (very) loosely based on the Meyers-Briggs personality indicators. So, dear readers, I’m hoping you’ll help me add and refine my categories, but I’m off to a start with the following…

There are not a 100 questions to respond to, just a self-assessment; so I am somewhere in the land of:

TTLM. Trying To Learn More. In this category are the good men and women who might still be serving it up Old Skool but are open to learning, open to growth yet struggling with standards related concepts and the snakepit of browser challenges of contemporary Web design and development. These brave souls are not in the majority, but they are to be lauded and assisted for their willingness to venture forth and expand their horizons.

and

SAVD. Standards Aware Visual Designer. These people are designing with standards in mind - creating beautiful sites for the screen, working toward achieving accessible sites, examining usability and human factors, and very possibly beginning or already designing for alternative devices and media types. A very rare breed, and if you are reading this post it’s very highly likely you’re either one your own fine self, know all their names or have Zeldman’s personal phone number memorized.

Now what? Do I get Zeldman’s number? And who’s gonna admit to being OFAD?

Labels are good for…. well…. soup cans.
