ALA relaunches, goes black on white, sells t-shirts
A List Apart relaunches, sells T-shirts
A List Apart relaunches, with a clean look and t-shirts made for CSS/web standards geeks. I’m especially taken with the orange one, with a clenched fist headed your direction, and the letters XHTML on the knuckles.
Jeffery Zeldman’s commentary on the makeover is worth a read. They’re being hosted at Textdrive. Worth a look if you’re considering a hosting company, particularly if you are looking for something friendly to host a blog.
I would expect they’re both competent and able to handle traffic, as ALA is not exactly a lightweight when it comes to traffic.
Textdrive is also offering StrongSpace, a monthly service to store all your valuable digital goods online, transferred via secure FTP. Nice price, friendly interface, and a product that does one thing: provide secure storage.

I would point you to the online version, but I can’t locate the article on their web site at the moment. I’ll post it here when it is available.

CSS resource discussion on Slashdot
A simple listing of CSS resources turns into a long rant and rave session on Slashdot
Slashdot pointed to a website of CSS resources, which in turn, resulted in a great deal of back-and-forth about the use of CSS, why tables matter and why they don’t, and all kinds of point and counterpoint.
Well worth a few minutes to follow the comments to get both sides of the story, slash-style. If you are easily offended, I’d advise *not* following the link. Slashdot is moderated by its users, but moderated more on the critical points than manners....
Most of the resources would be familiar to people following CSS and web standards, although Stylegala was a new one for me. Worth a look.
