Impressive list. Well done. I did notice some inaccuracies in my site’s listing though – eduStyle (http://www.eduStyle.net). It says “no” for both tags and RSS when there is in fact tags (users can tag any site) and an RSS feed for Gallery submission, Noteworthy selections and Recent Redesigns. Thanks again for the list.
Nice list sravkum. I posted a collection of CSS resources a few weeks ago that included much of these. There are some sites here that I didn’t know about when I made my list.
