The CSS Pocket Guide
Alternate Title: What I did on my Summer Work-cation

InterACT With Web Standards Book Released
In a recent post over on the Web Standards Project blog I introduced the newest and first book released by the WaSP – InterACT With Web Standards: A Holistic Approach to Web Design.
This is a great reference teaching the craft and profession of building web sites, and not just a book about markup or 3 column layouts with CSS. Read more about it in the blog post or go straight to the book’s companion site.

Great Destinations NJ Book Wrapping Up
I’m usually not one to enter photo contests and other events, but the Great Destinations NJ book project was interesting enough and the rights grab wasn’t too bad so I’ve uploaded some images. to the project.
Its sort of an Everywhere — or JPG — style book and DVD project showcasing the diversity of the Garden State.
There’s now 4 days left to contribute by uploading photos of New Jersey or voting on your favorites. So head on over. You can start by voting on my photo contributions.
