Next generation URLs, hostname/id without www and long-keywords
Twitter shows us that size matters, but shorter is better!
Its long time that many websites do not use .html like suffix. Remember spammer use longest urls with most important keywords. And many popular websites ie: Digg, Drupal, Twitter do not use www. in hostname(just Dmoz changed to www. in the last time). Web is getting mobile, also not everyone using internet with a full-keyboard, many users are getting information with cell-phones or similar small devices without a full-keyboard. Therefore it is getting more important to have short urls.

Web2 Style CSS Dynamic Menu with Arrows and Background-Images
Just another drop-down menu with web2 style background-images and arrows. We use two background images for < li > elements and two transparent background images(right positioned arrows with different directions) for < a > element. You can optimize background images as reducing width to 1 pixel. I dint use a smaller version, because we need to see images clearly. See demo of css menu.

Why tableless design, DIV vs. TABLE
Everybody says avoid tables when you are creating design elements like layouts, themes, pages... Why?
Because:
- Main
(X)HTML says; tables are for tabular data not for website-layout - Speed
Tables have much design code than content, divs are faster for download. Save bandwidth! - Usability
Tables let confusing while creating layout(You have to remember which TR or TD ends in which template file) - Debug
