WebWord Weblog Posting

WebWord Comment -- It looks like Joe Clark's Building Accessible Websites is available for sale. His Bookblog is interesting and worth reading if you are thinking about writing a book. I found out that Mark Pilgrim was hired as a technical editor for the book. Nice. His Dive Into Accessibility (30 days to a more accessible web site) collection is awesome. Speaking of accessibility, I'm reading through Accessible Web Sites, published by Glasshaus. It is the first book we are going to talk about for the WebWord Book Club. Should be a good time.

Funny. It says "This item will be published on August 21, 2002."

That's not "available".

There's available and there's available for sale. I should have said, available for sale.

No, she ain't done yet. I have the Moveable Type edits and my own edits of Chapter 9 and later staring at me from the floor. I make changes in the HTML, then make identical changes in Quark. (Yes, two instances of two sets of edits.) Then we have another massive read, particularly for reflow issues, given that we have added 20 illustrations since the last read. But we have an astonishingly advanced typographic design (how many ligatures does your computer book use?) and are hell-bent on creating a beautiful object you will love to read.

August 21? I dearly hope so.
