Presentations and Image Tricks

Jeffery Zeldman has posted slides from his recent Web Design World Seattle keynote and accessibility lecture.

Both are, I think, worth a look. Granted, they can't replace actually being there, but they are interesting (and well done).

The keynote focuses on designing with web standards, also the subject of Zeldman's recent book. He includes plenty of good examples of standards-based sites, and a few funny examples of sites gone bad.

The accessibility and Section 508 talk was interesting, as I recently put together a similar presentation. This is a great read for any designer who still isn't quite sure about this whole accessibility thing. Zeldman also pointed to an interesting article about the Fahrner Image Replacement technique.
