Being the story of the greatest standards war of all time
My last post – Why Johnny Can’t Format [a book] - attracted enough attention (over 900 reads so far, plus many comments, tweets, and other social media pass-along) that I thought those that read it might want to learn more about the standards war I referred to. I started a book way back in 2007 describing that epic battle, and below you can find the original introduction and first chapter, with more to follow.
It all started ten years ago, and it ain't over yet.
