This is going to take a lot of time

VALIDATION, I mean.

The other day, I asked Master Jessie, EDP's resident webmaster who runs a very restrained blog that forms part of the Planet Naga aggregation as to why validation is necessary.

He said a validated site means it conforms to programming standards. It is also most probably the reason why my other blog--and by extension this one--does not render well in Internet Explorer, which I complained about in a previous post.

Which means this test blog will be here for a longer haul, owing to a raison d'etre whose breadth and depth has just grown many times over.
