[Air-l] standards for web sites?

Hello AOIR, For a colleague's project involving African American related websites: Have any standards for evaluating websites have been set or even outlined? For instance, perhaps a set of measures such as stability/permanence, depth, audience, host, etc. URLs for good African American related websites would be welcome too. thank you, kate williams katewill@umich.edu http://www.umich.edu/~katewill/
