World-Wide Web What
B1FF was to
BITNET users, Bobo the
Webmonkey is to
webmonkeys - the mythical prototype of
incompetent web designers everywhere. In fact, Bobo may be
what B1FF became when he grew up.
Bobo knows about
HTML only what he has learned from viewing
the source of other people's Web pages.
Bobo doesn't know what a
MIME type is, even though someone
gave him a hardcopy of the
FOLDOC entry for it.
Bobo may have used an HTML code validator
Bobo doesn't know what the difference between
GIF and
JPEGis. He thinks
PNG is a foreign country.
All the pages Bobo has designed say "Welcome to [organisation]
online!" at the top, and say "click here!" at least three
times per page.
Bobo has used
Photoshop before; he doesn't understand why
people keep asking if he's ever been tested for
color-blindness.
Bobo never got that "its" / "it's" distinction real clear, as
you can tell from his pages.
Bobo likes BLINK.
