"I find mozilla developer network (mdn) blows away w3schools in all ways." Couldn't disagree more. Don't get me wrong, MDN has way better information but take yourself through the eyes of someone who just needs a quick reminder or sample of how to do something. I'll use a 1280x800 screen sample since that's a common size. Compare this: http://i.imgur.com/Tvg04Pr.png http://i.imgur.com/Tvg04Pr.png with this: http://i.imgur.com/gG7BIJF.png http://i.imgur.com/gG7BIJF.png Above the fold, one is a very quick and easy way for users to copy code and modify it for their purposes. It's also stupidly simple language. To make a box shadow, do this. The other has undisputedly better technical data but forces you have to scroll below to just see a sample code. And most new coders wouldn't understand how to read their syntax section. On top of that, w3schools lays out values in tables whereas MDN has paragraphs of copy. By no means am I arguing that MDN doesn't have more detail, but I can definitely see why W3Schools is still used by those who know better.
