About

That Standards Guy is the online persona of Karl Dawson, a web developer living and working in Ipswich, England.

I'm a member of the Guild of Accessible Web Designers and the Web Standards Group and team member at Accessites—an awards site to recognise accessible and usable websites.

I specialise as a front-end developer and worry about the minutae of semantic (X)HTML and CSS, accessibility, microformats, typographic rhythm and grid design. I also care about the user experience and remind myself constantly of visitor site goals when working with clients and their aims.

That Standards Guy is proudly powered by WordPress using my own “StrictlyTSG v3.0” theme. Site Policies.

Now on Ma.gnolia (again)

OK, here’s a weird thing. I’ve had an account at ma.gnolia.com since February 2006. I had the usual burst of energy to establish a contact list, groups and links but I ended up using del.icio.us instead. Last week Faruk added me as a contact so I headed over to the site to reciprocate the connection. But I had no bookmarks or groups or half the connections I must have built up from accessifyforum.com, Flickr, linkedin.com or after @media 2005. I’ve imported all 1047 del.icio.us links (to date) and joined a few groups so if you share my professional interests, feel free to add me as a contact and even suggest additional groups to join.
