The Yahoo! Style Guide - Writing, Editing, and Creating Content for the Digital World
http://styleguide.yahoo.com/

The seeds of "The Yahoo! Style Guide" were planted 15 years ago, when writers and programmers at Yahoo!, faced with a lack of industry guidance, began assembling a set of guidelines for Web writing. Their first in-house reference grew in size and company importance as content creators added to it through the years. Polished and expanded for its public debut, "The Yahoo! Style Guide" covers the basics of grammar and punctuation plus a multitude of topics with a Web-specific focus. Yahoo! editors discuss effective writing and editing for an online audience, techniques for streamlining copy, basic Web codes, Internet law, search engine optimization, and more. Before-and-after examples of how to clean up problem copy abound. This companion website not only features content excerpted from the book but also offers more help and resources from Yahoo! editors. "The Yahoo! Style Guide" is available in print and digital versions, such as those for iPad and Kindle. Read reviews, comments, and endorsements from academic and industry experts.
