If you don’t have this book and want a great read, buy it. If you don’t have it and are learning CSS3, purchase it. If you have it and love it, share your thoughts on the book, and tell a friend to buy it. Top notch effort by a true web craftsman, Dan Cederholm. One of my favorites, whom I have followed for a long time now since I set eyes on Simplebits.

Things are beginning to take shape again and get back to normal on this end, we appreciate your patience during this transition to the new host. Hopefully, we’ll be able to get some of the articles we had posted back up and get some new ones posted as well as some of the portfolio items back up very soon!
