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.

I’m giving micro-blogging (if that’s the right term) a go at Tumblr if you want to follow there. Why they can’t use semantic markup is beyond me, but nonetheless I like the theme I’ve selected. It aggregates my Twitter, del.icio.us and Google reader links as well as anything else I care to throw out there so it’s not all web development (but possibly still 100% geek).
