Designers of the world and standards advocates rejoice, for A List Apart is back. I still remember when I first started caring about the web, standards development and new methodologies, and ALA was the first place I went to looking for relevant information. It’s been around since 98 and version 4.0 is up now (and looking damn great).

It had been gone for quite a while, with news of being active and inactive coming one after another. Now, however, it sure as hell looks like it is ready to rumble. And with a mighty fine article by Jim Coudal to boot, about “Becoming your own client”. Now this is what I call web publishing - content for content’s sake.

No need to keep talking about something you’ve probably heard about before. Welcome back, ALA. Congratulations are due to Zeldman and the gang.
