Web standards advocates (you know who you are, Jeeves), you'll probably like this. Apparently tomorrow, a bunch of web sites (839 when I looked) are going to turn off the CSS styles on their sites in order to promote web standards.

Check out the details here:

The whole point of turning off CSS is so that we can see how "gracefully" the website degrades. Not every browser supports CSS fully or properly so, turning it off to see what it looks like is helpful. Not to mention fun.

Bugger, I wish I knew aobut this ahead of time! I guess there's still time to remove the CSS from my blog. That's no problem.

For some reason I thought this had been going on for years but it turns out that last year was the first.
