Webpage design guidelines for 2011 ad infinitum

While tinkering with my Blogger blog’s template, and consulting with the experts online regarding the latest webpage design standards, I began to wonder myself how adaptable my designs were.

It’s like when you were a kid grocery shopping with your mother and you see that bright, colorful box of fruit chews but you can’t get it because it costs too much.
