The May 1st Reboot is a cool, good-for-the-community type project started in 2000 which is celebrating 5 years in existence this year (even though it got skipped in 2003  everybody was just too depressed and out of work I guess). The gist of it is, you enter your name into the list of other Rebooters (Rebootees?) at their site and on May 1st you launch a redesign of your site, blog, whatever, at the same time as lots of other web professionals across the world.
The short version? The May 1st Reboot is a community project that brings together web professionals from all over and encourages them to collectively launch redesigns of their sites on May 1st. The only problem is the entries are all extremely Flash heavy. Sure, Flash has its place -- but where's the CSS and web standards representation?
So this year CSS Reboot will attempt to bring together web professionals who design with CSS and standards in mind to launch their redesigns on May 1st along with all the Flash designers. This way we can both participate and show everyone just how great semantic, accessible design can be.
