Have you been looking for that perfect Christmas gift for your favorite blue-eyed blonde haired developer? (That’s me!) Perhaps you’re a client who wants to reward their freelancer? Or maybe you’ve just been good all year and want to buy yourself something awesome.
In spite of the very stressful week it has been (sorry for skipping a post yesterday) I thought we’d all hunker down together and have something enjoyable that doesn’t deal with business. Presents! (Please email me if you’d like my address to send these too…*wink wink*)
I don’t normally read books about web design and programming, but this is at the top of my list. The book looks awesome!
Details from site: The book has 313 pages in all, full of practical knowledge for designers and Web developers. It contains 10 chapters and is printed in full color. The book is a paperback and is 8.27 × 5.5 inches (21 × 14 cm). It contains colorful illustrations created by designers from the Russia-based SoftFacade (Anton Zykin, Dmitry Tsozik, Anna Myagkova).
Buy it from Smashing Magazine for $29.90
