Cleveland Web Standards Get a New Home

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

The Cleveland Web Standards Association has (appropriately enough) launched their own site, which you should feel beyond compelled to check out here.

The CWSA is a group of Web developers from around the Cleveland area that meet on a monthly basis to discuss goals and methods for establishing standards in site development, both present and future – or as their site succinctly states, “In short, we’re making Cleveland suck less, one website at a time”. First Northeast Ohio, then the Midwest, then the whole damn country, baby. The Tim Conway of Web standards organizations, you might say. But you probably wouldn’t. I already can’t believe that I just did. I probably should have gone with Michael Stanley…

Anyway, if you are a Cleveland-area Web developer who would like to learn more about current standards and help set future ones in a less-than-formal atmosphere, check out their site and then get signed up here.

The Web Standards Advent Calendar - 24 ways, 2006

Friday, December 1st, 2006

Why have chocolates-based advent calendar again this year when you can suffice your daily craving with one that’s standards-based instead - yeh!

24 ways is brought to us by Drew McLellan - a web developer, author and no-good swindler from just outside London, England. At the Web Standards Project he works on press, strategy and tools. Drew keeps a personal weblog covering web development issues and themes.

Drew was nice enough to provide links to last year’s articles as well. These well-crafted articles are done by some of the most recognized in the industry.

On second thought, have fun with the examples while crushing a box of chocolates at the same time.
