Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

Thanks to our sponsors, Glass Onion

I hope it’s reasonably well known that one of the principle foundations of Web Directions has always been standards, accessibility, and best practice in web design and development. For close to a decade, Maxine and I have evangelized standards, developed software all about developing standards based web sites, and provided all kinds of resources for learning standards based design. So seeing the increasing adoption of these practices and principles the last few years has been very encouraging and gratifying.

Now one of the very first design companies we became aware of who made a commitment to standards based development was Glass Onion. Folks from Glass Onion have come to every one of our Australian conferences, and last year the The Australian College of Physical Education site, designed and built by Glass Onion was highly commended by the Jury of the McFarlane Prize, underscoring this commitment.

So it’s very gratifying to have Glass Onion as one of our significant supporters this year. Glass Onion will also have a presence at the Expo, so if you are looking for a web communications agency with a long standing focus on standards and accessibility, make sure you say hi to them.

Thanks very much to Glass Onion for their support, we really appreciate it.
