For those of you that haven’t been following along, the CSS Reboot is an effort started by B. Adam Howell back in March to combine the efforts of standards-based designers (can we stop using that qualifier yet?) to give a small corner of the web a big coordinated facelift.

We’ve all read about the time and money that switching over to a standards-based design can save us, but my favorite aspect of the Reboot is checking out all of the eye-candy. A majority of the participants are really talented designers, and I probably wouldn’t have the pleasure of checking out their work if it weren’t for the Reboot. The Reboot really levels the playing field to give lesser-known designers the exposure they deserve, and we get to watch as the cream rises to the top.

Check it out on Nov. 1 – www.cssreboot.com
