Kudos to Molly for being willing to ask Bill Gates tough questions straight to his face. Personally, I'm less interested in what MS is doing with regards to standards support in IE8 and more interested in what they're doing to improve adoption rate of their newer browsers (like IE7 now, and IE8 when it's available).

According to Subvert Marketing, Blue Flavor is one of the top 10 interactive agencies in the world. That's awesome, but I think the list might be more aptly titled "The world's top 10 interactive agencies who focus on web standards-aware development." Everyone on the list is a great choice, but there are few that probably should be there, as well -- nclud and Behavior both come to mind. Saved By: Jeff Croft | View Details | Give Thanks

Lots of people are complaining about the W3C and related groups these days, and Zeldman wonders what all the fuss is about. I agree that it's not a *crisis*, but the glacial pace of the W3C is *annoying*. Saved By: Jeff Croft | View Details | Give Thanks

Fantastic list of tools to grade your website's readiness against SEO, standards, accessibility, etc. I already use a fair number of these, but this is a great list to start from if you're lacking in these areas

Nice piece by Daniel Mall on using Flash to automate image effects (and other things, too!) in otherwise-HTML pages. I'm so happy to see more and more interplay of Flash and web standards. Us standards-aware designers *really* need to stop shunning Flash -- it's great technology that does some pretty amazing things for us, many of which we could never do otherwise.

A *great* article by Ethan Marcotte on how we need to redefine the message we use in web standards evangelism. He touches on two things that baffle my mind. First, I don't understand why anyone would ever validate someone else's code and then speak publicly about the errors they find. If you do that, you're being an asshole. Period. Validation is a process for you to do on *your code*, so as to help you avoid the timesink that is working with broken code later -- using invalid code will especially kill you when you go to add DOM scripting or CSS to the page. Don't validate other people's code. It's assholish. Second, he mentions how some CMSes are still spewing tag-soup all over our web. I find this, frankly, absurd. If your CMS that doesn't allow you 100%, full control over its output via a template system of some sort, you've got to find a way off of that thing. Any CMS that doesn't give you full control of the output is not worth anyone's time.

There are approximately 1,342,973 different methods for embedding you SWF files in (X)HTML pages. Ask web-standards oriented developers which is best, and you'll get approximately 1,342,974 answers. This article does a nice job of breaking down the differences between the most popular methods.

Eric Skogen and space150 have outlined their techniques for using Flash in ways that augment web standards, and in which every element created in Flash has a (X)HTML counterpart. Seems like they could be onto something here...
