Markup Review

A blog about tech and the web, with a fair bit of content on HTML5.

It’s nice to see input type="search" at the top of a blog, but the elements used in the articles on the homepage could be changed to make them a bit more semantic. Firstly I would use heading tags (h1-h6) for the article headings so they are titled in the document outline. aside is for content related to the content of its nearest sectioning ancestor, so a p tag would work well for the excerpt text. I would also use an h1 to wrap the logo. That means the document itself has a title.

Got something constructive to say?
