Andy Budd's christmas giveaway

Dear Santa,

As you know I'm moving soon and money will be tight. All I want for Christmas is a good book to curl up in bed with. I hope that on Christmas morning I wake up and under my tree I find Andy Budd's "CSS Mastery" all wrapped up nicely with a tag addressed to me (hint hint). Just in case you aren't aware of his book I'm enclosing a copy of the cover so that you don't miss it in the bookstores (see below).



Please Santa, one of my new years resolutions this year is to learn even more about CSS and web standards and everything else I can get my hands on and I KNOW that this book will be a great help.

See you on Christmas morning Santa,
Your mince pies and brandy will be waiting for you.

Funny Vauxhall Corsa Adverts

Being a "creative" I love watching good adverts.
Here are two new Vauxhall Corsa ads that star popular "beanies".

Made me laugh. I think they are cute :)

CMS Text Editors

I read a really good article about Content Management text editors over at www.standards-schmandards.com's blog. Basically they are talking about a new text editor that is under development: WYMeditor.

WYMeditor formats text correctly with style sheets thus avoiding users changing fonts, font sizes and colours. And best of all? The mark up it creates is nice and clean without any nasty styling html tags in between the source code.

USB / Firewire Hub

Is this cool or what?



With this cool looking device you can add 4 USB ports and 2 FireWire ports to your computer system and connect up to six devices simultaneously. Bundled with 8 flexible, twistable cables (5 USB 2.0 & 3 FireWire 400), a USB fan, a USB light, a USB extension cable and a FireWire 400 extension cable. It costs $79 and will be ready to buy at the end of December.
