Subscription Glea
Posted in: Design, Tech, Web
I opened the mail box today and instantly my mood went up several notches. My first issue of .net had arrived. I was as excited as a young child with a new toy. Simply ecstatic I tell you. I rushed to open it and vigorously flipped through the different articles and pages. I am still reading through it, but several articles have great promise.
I have wanted a subscription to this wonderful magazine for quite some time now, but only finally broke down last month to place an order, it is a bit pricey to get it in the US. Thirteen brilliant issues promise to have a wealth of information for me in the coming year.
For those of you who are unaware of the web design world, in other words the majority, .net is a UK publication on web design and development. It contains articles and techniques and general information on what is going on in the web design world.
The UK is a big hub in this industry. There are loads of talented people over there. LOADS I tell you! Brilliant designers and developers and general innovators. I hope to be able to get over there in the future to attend some of the many different web centered events that go on, especially Oxford Geek Night.
I will probably have a lot of posts that are inspired by articles from the magazine, so be prepared for it.

.net is indeed a great publication, Matt. I also think you’ve come in at teh right time, because the magazine today is loads better than it used to be. Also, another good reason: I’m writing tutorials regularly from the next issue onwards!
A Quick suggestion if I may: it’d be great to have a link to the comments (even if there aren’t any) from the front page; for a while I thought that there wasn’t a commenting option!

Ooh, looks like there’s some negative margins going on in the comment paragraphs…

Elliot, thanks for alerting me to the negative margin issue. Not quite sure how I missed that. A bit embarrassing, that is for sure.
I am really looking forward to future issues of .net, and I will look for you tutorials for sure.
I had originally intended to add a link to the comments when I built the site. But as you can see, I don’t get many comments at the moment. But if you figure that it isn’t an issue, then I think I will put it up anyway.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my humble site and suggest it. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated for sure.
