Me Standard. You Tag Soup?

Simon Willison links to a good article at W3C: My Web site is standard! And yours?. It lists many of the comments you often hear from people who haven’t yet realized that using standards compliant markup will make their lives easier. The first is one of my favourites: If my Web site is made with the standards, it will be unexciting and I will lose customers. Please allow me to ROTFLMAO for a while :)

Then take a look at sites like Cinnamon Interactive, American Megatrends, Wired News, ESPN.com and Cingular Wireless.
