Via a Slashdot link from something else (possibly the Opera 9 story), from A List Apart: In Search of the Holy Grail:

Three columns. One fixed-width sidebar for your navigation, another for, say, your Google Ads or your Flickr photos—and, as in a fancy truffle, a liquid center for the real substance. Its wide applicability in this golden age of blogging, along with its considerable difficulty, is what has earned the layout the title of Holy Grail.

I made a half-assed attempt at adding this to the existing template for the Restaurant Reviews pages, but it… didn’t turn out well. I would like to, as the ALA article describes, have one column for my stuff (intra-site links) and the other for ads and blogrolls and whatnot (extra-site). We’ll see if I actually get around to making it work. Hell, I haven’t even gone back and worked on migrating to WordPress.
