Sign Of The Times: HTML For Babies
The latest book on tech- and design-savvy parents’ radar is HTML For Babies. As the description reads: “Show your little ones HTML markup code along with letter forms to get them started on the visual patterns and symbols that make up the essential building blocks of the Web.”
It would be easy to roll your eyes at this book; I did, at first, but then I got over it. Like Urban Babies Wear Black, a book that I received as a gift not once but four times when my son was born, HTML For Babies is more of a statement on our modern world than a call to action.
Sure, it conjures up images of stressed out, glass-eyed mini-geeks, but it’s sooooo 2011.
