A picture named necc.jpg

I've created a section to begin placing downloads and resources related to the workshop that I'm teaching at NECC this year on Macromedia's Fireworks and Dreamweaver software.

New Look
I've made some minor changes. I'm not sure if its better or worse looking now. Maybe I'm just tired of green. I'll give it a few days and see how it strikes me then. If I still like it I'll copy the stylesheet to the pages behind the home page which currently still sport the old look.

Learning ColdFusion
I haven't done much posting about ColdFusion on here, but a few months ago I picked up Ben Forta's 'Certified ColdFusion MX Developer Study Guide' to begin working towards that certification. I really wish that I had picked up this book sooner as it would be a good book for a beginner, yet it takes you as far as you want to go. It doesn't contain all of the examples and super in-depth explanations that some of the phonebook size volumes have, but it's easy to understand and walks you through things very concisely. I worked through the first half of the book quickly as it was pretty familiar material. Now I'm painfully drudging through the last half. =)

Favorite Apps Updated
I've updated my Favorite Apps page. There were some applications that I simply was not using any more and others that I have been using for a while now that I had just not added.

A blueberry by any other name
Kirk Langer posted a link to this article on his website. It's a great story about a business lecturer who changes his tune on whether schools should be run like a business.
