Thomas asks…
What is the embodied energy of a web page?
since “sustainable web design” and “sustainable virtual design” may become important for the web, game, and virtual world industries, I am interested in defining sustainability in the virtual space.
admin answers:
It depends on what you mean by “sustainable”, so I will answer it in 2 totally different ways.
“Sustainable” as in “sustainable energy/environmental issues”: This really has to do with your host. If you pay a bit more you can find “green hosts” that generate at least a portion of the power from renewable sources and try to minimize their carbon footprint.
“Sustainable” as in “long-lasting and low rate of redesign”: This has to do with staying *far* away from trends. We have to keep in mind that marques and blink tags were once the hot, “in” thing. After that, Java applets were. And then sites stuffed with Flash content. All of these look amateur by today’s standards. While no one has a crystal ball, minimalism, semantic code, HTML5 and general web standards can go a long way towards creating a site that will require little redesigning in the foreseeable future.
I hope this helps. If I didn’t hit what you were talking about at all, please add more info.
