I would like to give a brief overview of the benefits of web standards, both for our current and future clients, and for our site's visitors.
Usage of web standards improves the accessibility of your site, making it easier for people with disabilities to read and understand your site's content. Using XHTML and CSS to separate the structure and content of your site from its presentation will make your site accessible.

While I have used jQuery (a javascript utility library) in the past, I generally have fallen back to the Prototype JS library. This was mostly because I was already familiar with it from my work on FamilySnap, and because it can be difficult to find the time to fit in learning another tool when it's not completely necessary to do so.

For those who have seen the previous versions of our site, I hope you will like the new site. My thanks goes out to Dima at TYZ Design for the original design, layout, and graphical elements of our new site!
