About web standards

I try to comply with Web standards, following the Recommendations du W3C, the organism in charge of the development of Web norms. Thanks to this technical choice, this site is accessible in all sorts of web browsers and operating systems. I like to imagine a web society where the first exchanges wouldn't be money, but rather ideas, knowledge and culture. My interest to the norms recommended by the W3C finds its sources in my will for a better way to communicate between humans at a planet scale. In one word, this is called progress :-)
