The requirement of a wooden table in any development process is a meme from The Daily WTF. The basic process of using a wooden table was described in the original post which can be found here.
The Wooden Table Process
- Using your favorite word processing software, design a flyer that contains the information you'd like to convey to your website visitor
- Once designed, print the flyer on a color printer
- Lay the printed sheet of paper face-up on a table, preferably a clean, wooden table
- Take a photograph of the flyer using a camera, preferably a digital
- Download and print (or develop) the photograph of the flyer
- With a normal scanner, scan the photograph of the flyer
- Upload the scanned image to a frame on your website
Memetical Usage
In comments on The Daily WTF content, often suggestions will be made such as "print out the source code, lay it on a wooden table, take a picture..."
Some argue that any program that makes it out of beta will involve a wooden table at some point.
