You can now follow the complete thread for Designing With Web Standards using the DWWS tag, which now includes a book review, a brief history of the DWWS group on Facebook, and some background on the original Blue Beanie Day.

While we’re on the topic of Zeldman (and DWWS) you should participate in (yes, if you are a web designer, you should take the survey too!) the 2008 Survey of People Who Make Websites.
