People may not know the importance of using “alt” attribute in web design. It is very important, because it is good for Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Suppose someone search about something, the picture could help to increase the rating as well.
I just read this web it explain very well about using “alt”. It also encourage people to use alt although it is empty. Alt also shouldn’t redundant with the content of page. For example, when you want to display picture of Barack Obama, you don’t need to do like this :
1 2 3 4 | <p> Picture of Barack Obama, the President of United States from 2009 <img src='www.barackobama.com/obama.jpg' alt="picture of barack obama, president of united states"/> </p> |
On the browser or web spider it will looks like :
Picture of Barack Obama, the President of United States picture of barack obama, president of united states
It is redundant information. So you can simply put empty on the alt because the previous text has already explain it.
1 2 3 4 | <p> Picture of Barack Obama, the President of United States from 2009 <img src='www.barackobama.com/obama.jpg' alt=""/> </p> |

]]>When i start the safari, oh, it looks like Chrome. Is it chrome modified ? Seems good … okay go on .. i tried to setup the fonts, i want to choose which fonts supported .. and dang .. i select the graphics font (like dingbat) and my safari went freeze…. damn. I checked the windows task manager and found that safari ate 100 MB… wth .. i just load for 2 tabs and it start to ate 100MB … worst than Firefox.
Safari 4 beta, my first impression is crap and lots of marketing hype. The development tools are not better than Firebug. Firebug is the best one and I never saw better than firebug.
