| Even Faster Web Sites |
Great book! This book has lots of good tips even for experienced web developers. The first few chapters cover all the JavaScript tricks to prevent your page from slowing down from all the JavaScript you may be using on your web site. With the popularity of AJAX, jquery and all the other JavaScript frameworks and pulg-ins out there, the techniques you learn in the first few chapters are critical. It's easy to get carried away with all the JavaScript magic out there. Gzip compression is a wonderful piece of magic that compresses the text-based files on your server. |

| The Book of Inkscape |
One of the most significant barriers to using open source software that I hear from many home users (as wall as others) is the lack of adequate documentation and training materials. So, the publication of The Book of Inkscape makes the Inkscape open source vector graphics application much more accessible to the artist community as well as the general public. It is a rare developer who can provide clear insights into the nuts and bolts of the workings of the features of their software application in language for the non-developer. |

| Mastering Web Content Behavior with Ajax |
I would say this DVD is somewhat misnamed. First, you might think from use of the word “Mastering” that it’s for advanced users. However, it is actually very much a beginner resource. And second, it’s really about the use of JavaScript frameworks rather than Ajax specifically (at least if you define Ajax as the combination of JavaScript and XML). Only one of the 9 segments deals with using XML data. |

| The Twitter Book |
I signed up for a Twitter account in December of 2008 in order to take advantage of a SitePoint PDF book give-away. I really didn’t know much about it at the time, just that it was a tool for broadcasting brief messages, but not a spam generator. Since that time I’ve been hearing terms like ‘tweet’ and ‘retweet’ on the local news and in real-time conversations. However, I still didn’t really get it. The Twitter Book, by Tim O’Reilly and Sarah Milstein, to the rescue! They very neatly break down Twitter into easy to digest concepts and features in this O’Reilly publication. The service is explained succinctly in large type on the right page and illustrated by a variety of screen shots on the left page, no information overload. |
