Welcome New Students!

Welcome new students! We all hope that you will enjoy the program. There are a couple of articles that I would like you to read today:

Now for some goodies from around the web:

Tracy shared a great resource with me for used books, Abebooks. The prices are terrific and you can get many of the textbooks we use in class at this site. Thanks, Tracy!

Brainbench is offering another couple of days of free testing. At Brainbench you can take a variety of technical exams to see how you’re doing with your progress in class.

I know that some of you have started or plan to start your own small business. About.com lists the Top 10 Most Practical Blogs for Entrepreneurs

Web Creme showcases some outstanding and unique web sites. Definitely worth taking a look at some of the sites for inspiration.

And of course a few interesting CSS Articles:

Image floats, without the text wrap! – a technique for using floats and keeping the content from floating around the image or div.

CSS is not hard to learn – if you recognise it for what it is – a great article worth a read for anyone working with CSS.

The CSS Zen Garden has some new designs including one by Mani Sheriar, a former student! You can visit Mani’s blog here http://www.manisheriar.com/blog/.

    Robin just letting you know I bought the two books you recommended and the first one came today. Web Standard Solutions. I’m only on page 23 but I’m so excited! I can’t wait to have some free time and begin some updating and tinkering with my site. Thanks for the tip! I will be back to read in detail some of the links you offered, they’ll probably make more sense to me after I’ve finished this book.

    Too bad you can’t offer your course online ;)
