I have been a regular reader of http://www.deccanchronicle.com/ [DC in short], a hyderabad based english paper for the past 4 years now, as a weak connection to anything hyderabad. The only reason I used to tolerate reading the online version and badly designed site was that it was the only english newspaper. Yes we had Telugu papers, but the presentation and technology improved only in recent times. [earlier readers had to look at scanned images folks not the cool present day UTF fonts..] So sometime early Jan 2009, DC got a facelift. It now emulates certain CMS based news sites, and a vast improvement from the old version. Me being me, I had to look under the hood! I saw the site was composed of a gazillion divs, instead of tables and cells. [Look up the source of timesofindia, and you can see a host of tables over there!] I was impressed. [W3c standards? Atleast an attempt? Yes yes yes! Hallelujah!]
