For the Love of Free Books – CSS Stylin’
The folks over at Sitepoint are offering a free eBook on CSS called “The Art & Science of CSS”. From my initial review, this is a great primer both for those learning CSS and those who currently use CSS but are on the look-out for more resources. When it comes to stylesheet design, I don’t have a “too-much” scale when it comes to the tools and tricks of the trade. The link to acquire the free book/download is over at http://twitaway.com.
On the matter of free eBooks – there are often many opportunities for “free” stuff if you keep your eyes open. Chris Garrett of chrisg.com has a free offering if you subscribe to his RSS feed – there are currently 2 free eBook offerings in exchange for a simple (free) subscription.
These days (or any day for that matter) … free is a great price.
