Bobo the Webmonkey

   <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
   (http://validator.w3.org/) before, but isn't sure.

   Bobo doesn't know what the difference between {GIF} and {JPEG}
   is.  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>.
