May 1st CSS Reboot
Posted on April 14, 2005 at 12:38 PM EST
I’ve decided to participate in this year’s May 1st Reboot and also the May 1st CSS Reboot. It’s been almost a year since I started the site and it’s time for a fresh look. In case you’re not familiar with the May 1st Reboot, it is a yearly relaunch of websites with new designs and is currently in it’s 5th year. The main problem with it though is that most of the entries are created with Flash. For this reason a new site has been started this year called CSS Reboot that is independently run.
The May 1st Reboot is a community project that brings together web professionals from all over and encourages them to collectively launch redesigns of their sites on May 1st. The only problem is the entries are all extremely Flash heavy. Sure, Flash has its place but where’s the CSS and web standards representation?
So this year CSS Reboot will attempt to bring together web professionals who design with CSS and standards in mind to launch their redesigns on May 1st along with all the Flash designers. This way we can both participate and show everyone just how great semantic, accessible design can be.
It’s going to be tough to make the deadline as it is just over two weeks away. Looks like I’m going to have to find some time to start coding!
