The Web Standards Awards - run by Johan Edlund, Andy Budd, Cameron Adams has announced their first "site of the month". http://www.webstandardsawards.com/previous/the_85th_pga_championship.html#7
Also worth browsing their previous weekly Web Standards Awards winners: http://www.webstandardsawards.com/previous/ Rounded corners in CSS http://www.virtuelvis.com/gallery/css/rounded/ This technique doesn�t work MSIE, but should in Opera and Mozilla. Also sucks on some version of Safari. Very interesting, but makes you wonder how practical it is in our current browser climate. D. Keith Robinson has interesting comments at his post on web standards "I�ve come along way, but it�s not always been easy... I�m still in a transitional phase when it comes to Web standards support" http://www.7nights.com/asterisk/archives/why_not_web_standards.php Dan Cederholm has launched a Web Standards book based on the thought provoking Simple Quiz series - should be a great read. "Markup and Style Handbook" http://www.simplebits.com/archives/2004/03/07/book.html Eric Meyer (the CSS guru) has also announced a new book "Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition": http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/200403.html#d08 37signals have launched a new book - "Defensive Design for the Web: How To Improve Error Messages, Help, Forms, and Other Crisis Points" http://www.37signals.com/book/ Two quick links to nice web standards based sites (purely subjective): http://www.iconbuffet.com/ http://notesfromthedovecote.org/ And finally... Some appallingly bad web standards jokes: http://www.htmldog.com/ptg/archives/000036.php Reminds me of the old CSS joke... "What does a CSS Guru have in his house? Lots of chairs but no tables"...
