Web Principles as credo
Currently we’ve been discussing the inherent value of adopting web principles as guiding direction for our internal teams. As one of the first posts on this blog, Jason worked toward a definition of the Content Management and Online Colaboration team.
Building on this, we’ve been on the lookout for other groups’ Web Principles to help us define our way forward on a larger scale. Tom Loosemore posted a while back on the BBC’s 15 Web Principles they developed and sent to their board for signoff.
The power of defined principles as credo is obvious: they would provide and communicate clear direction and would ensure that the web-company half of Capella is providing what the leadership is asking for (and conversely, so that the senior management is also in lockstep with the slightly-more-progressive elements of the internet today and what we could provide).
Thoughts? If we looked at the BBC’s principles as a rough draft, which fit particularly well and what’s missing?

I like the list. I wish I had more time to think about it. Number 7, best practices, I think is extremely important. I’d like to see educational websites work together to develop a set of best practices. Number 8, link forever, I don’t know how you can accomplish that, but if you could it would surely save a lot of frustration on this educator’s part.
