Web Directions Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

Via Ars Technica, news of a survey by Opera Software, long time supporters of Web Directions, makers of fine browsers, and strong advocates for an open, standards based web, that finds, to probably no one’s surprise, that the vast majority of the web is not standards based.

The good news is that this is up substantially from about 2.6% in a different study only 18 months prior to that.

There’s much much more to the report than just this – CSS use (around 80% of all sites surveyed) Scripting (nearly 75%), document structure, and much more.

Head over to the report to get more of an understanding of the state of the web in early 2008.
