Hi Everyone.
I have to agree with Alexis on this one. Between ourselves, joking
around about
Association site is another thing completely.
As an association that wants to help promote web standards and best
practices for web design and development in our area, potentially
alienating those we want to attract (business in need of good
standards based sites, designers and developers in the area who are
looking to learn) isn't a good way to go about it.
That being said, I thought "CWSA, Making Cleveland suck less, one
website at a time." was hilarious. For our site though, something a
bit less controversial.
Just my two cents.
