As I get back to work today after enjoying the holiday season and a bit of time off, I am thinking of how glad I am that 2009 is finally behind us. The past year was a rough one for a lot of people, myself included. Don’t worry, I won’t depress you with the details. Instead of looking back to the rough year that’s now over, I am going to try and focus on the insanely busy year that is ahead.

As an advocate of web standards and accessible web design, I recently submitted my application to become a member of the Guild of Accessible Web Designers. I strongly believe in building websites that are as accessible to as many users as possible, despite the type of technology being used to view a site.

I am a little late in getting this posted due to being away in San Francisco for 6 weeks. In issue #191 (Aug. 2009) of the .net magazine, my website was featured in the Readers’ sites section. I was pretty excited to find out!

I just thought I would share and give big thanks to the .net magazine for a bit of exposure in their awesome magazine.

So Andy over at Unit Interactive has posted on an awesome article titled We Refuse in which he shares how Unit Interactive is refusing to participate in the current world recession.

I actually found the article to be very inspiring and the overall attitude of Andy really made me think about some things that I need to be refusing.
