Hello again, groups. Long time, no post.
I'm now working for the web center of a large Midwestern company, and am
thinking of putting together a presentation on web usability and design
issues for a brown-bag type. This is an area I once considered myself
pretty knowledgable about, but I haven't been active in these circles
for several years now. I don't want to start harping on ideas that have
been out of date since 2001! So if anyone has ideas for topics I ought
to include, or pointers to good online references from recent years,
that would be most helpful. I do plan to cover the basics like valid
markup, graceful degradation (use your alt texts!), thinking
"alternative views" and how CSS is a boon, etc. If this goes well, I
might do something more in-depth on CSS later, so I don't want to focus
overmuch on it now. What makes the web usable? What are you doing on
your sites to aid navigability and usability in general?
Thanks in advance,
Tim

Far from perfect, but a good start:

The "design guide" is weak, but most other sections are strong
