Sometimes, people ask me to write or speak for them. This is where that stuff lives.
The Web Project Guide
I wrote a book, alongside my co-author Deane Barker. It’s called The Web Project Guide, and you can get it in two ways.
- You can buy your own copy. You should, it’s great.
- You can check out the online version.
Additionally, The Web Project Guide is also a podcast. For the first 24 episodes, we’ll be dropping episodes on the topics within the book, and then we’ll spin out from there. You can find the podcast anywhere podcasts are cast:
