Mike Davidson quotes
" At ESPN, we are blessed with a user base that is about 98% standards-compliant. Some of this might be because a large part of our audience is young savvy Internet users, and some might be because the majority of our traffic comes from the workplace. "

Mike Davidson
" Because the competitive landscape of the web is such that the site which looks and works best gets the most traffic, developers and designers put a premium on the presentation of that content and let structural markup take a back seat. "

Mike Davidson
" Blogs are a great way to monitor and even participate in the chatter about your new site. "

Mike Davidson
" ESPN always seeks to present a unique looking front page through the use of typographically styled headlines, large photos, video embedded directly into the page, and interactive Flash features like our new Flash 6 photo gallery. "

Mike Davidson
" ESPN.com allows customers, free-of-charge, to use our vast online sports resource in exchange for one thing: exposure to advertising and sponsorships. This is how TV works, and this is also basically how newspapers and magazines work as well. "

Mike Davidson
" Essentially, we have four publishing modes: regular, twin-top, skirmish, and war. "

Mike Davidson
" For most of the '90s and the first part of this decade, content providers who wanted to publish online only needed to worry about the graphical web browser. "

Mike Davidson
" For the tiny percentage of people who are negatively affected by our embracing of standards, they can just get their sports somewhere else in the meantime. It's not like we're denying them hospital care. "

Mike Davidson
" I didn't get into design to be an artist. To me, an artist creates things to evoke emotion. Being a designer goes a step further than that, not only trying to evoke emotion but trying to make a reaction. It is very objective-driven, and that's what makes it interesting. "

Mike Davidson
" I don't start with a design objective, I start with a communication objective. I feel my project is successful if it communicates what it is supposed to communicate. "

Mike Davidson
" I loudly applaud what the folks over at Wired have been able to do with their site in one fell swoop, but for better or for worse, ESPN is a much bigger beast. "

Mike Davidson
" I vertically center things in tables a lot, and the fact that there is no way to control vertical positioning in divs affects the way we do things across the board. "

Mike Davidson
" If I somehow felt like having a site which strictly validates was an indication of my manhood, maybe I'd do it, but it really means very little to me. We're mavericks over here, what can we say? "

Mike Davidson
" If I was designing a web site for elementary school children, I might have a much higher percentage of older computers with outdated browsers since keeping up with browser and hardware technology has not traditionally been a strong point of most elementary schools. "

Mike Davidson
" If we can do them a favor by telling them how to improve their experience on the ESPN and the rest of the Internet, then why shouldn't we? We are a bit cocky over here so we feel that people should of course invest the 5 or 10 minutes it takes to upgrade in order to view our site. "
