Arriving soon: That Web Guy Blog
Mikey 10 commentsI'm creating another blog. But don't fret, it won't interfere with my Rusty Lime duties.
So what's it about? It's called "That Web Guy Blog" and it's about 90% finished. The site is going to be a resource for all things web design related, with topics focusing on usability, accessibility, best practices, and there will be tutorials for absolute beginners and advanced users alike - the sort of stuff I can't really do here on Rusty Lime.
Most of the tutorials will be on front end tech (XHTML and CSS) but I will also occasionally delve into JavaScript and PHP if it serves the right purpose.
I already have a few friends who have volunteered to be beta testers, but I am opening it up to anyone else (in the interest of getting more honest feedback :-) who might be interested. Just send me a message on my profile page if you want in. Testing probably wont start for another month.
Some screenies below (complete with bogus content - before you say it). Stay tuned.
I'm looking forward to learning some new tricks!
hey i thought i was your first port of call for beta duties..........next time on golf course.........
Sweet, I need this, I have a big thick book I bought from Monash Uni book store and this will encourage my efforts (I also got one on running a Ubuntu Server too).
You're a champ Mikey!
Mikey, as you know i am a graphic designer and web developer. would love to write for the new blog.
...in response to this comment by Marvin the Martian. Thanks for the offer dude but it's going to be a solo project and will also double as my own personal/professional resource.
how do you find the time?
