As Mozilla's <span class="p-job-title">Web Standards Lead</span>, I help advance the <span class="p-category category">open web</span> platform by editing and contributing to specifications, participating in working groups, and helping coordinate Mozilla's work on <span class="p-category category">[[standards]]</span> in general.
In particular I prioritize working on critical areas where the open web or standards are threatened, either directly, by proprietary (or oligopolic) efforts, or indirectly, by badly designed standards, e.g. standards biased toward large companies, rather than individual users, authors, designers, and developers.
Critical projects that I'm currently focused on:areas of focus
* '''<span class="p-category category">[[IndieWebCamp|IndieWeb]]</span>''' - the independent web, in contrast to the web of silos and user- and developer-unfriendly <abbr title="terms of services">TOS</abbr>es. See also [[Webmaker]]. Related: [[SocialAPI]].
* '''<span class="p-category category">[[Microformats]]</span>''' - simple, open standards for marking up compound semantics in HTML, in contrast to complex (XML, RDFa, microdata), or closed / vendor-specific / oligopolic (schema.org) efforts. See also [[Gaia/System/Microformats]] and <span class="p-category category">[[HTML5]]</span> (I wrote a [http://tantek.com/html5now book on getting started with HTML5]).
