SAFARI AFFILIATE PROGRAM FLYERS NOW AVAILABLE
Back in our August e-news, we brought you information about how your group can earn financial rewards while providing valuable content for your Web site through Safari Books Online’s new affiliate program. Due to requests from some user groups, Safari has put together a .pdf flyer that can be printed and passed out at your meetings. You can download these flyers from Safari’s site at http://safari.informit.com/affiliates/?p=boilerplate. Or, if you prefer, you can drop me an email at , and I will send the .pdf attachment to you.
MXIMIZE CONFERENCE 2004, DEC 14 - 16, 2004
A Macromedia Web Design & Development Conference
Peachpit authors Tom Green, Sandro Corsaro, Robert Reinhard, and Joseph Lowery will be featured speakers at the upcoming MXimize Conference in Orlando, FL.
Web sites today can be created by bringing together many different technologies into complex relationships: dynamic HTML, Flash, CSS, XML, JavaScript, and many server-based languages and applications, such as ColdFusion, .NET, J2EE, and database technology. The MXimize Conference is a three-day, multi-session event, designed to provide the opportunity to explore how these tools work in assisting you to create and maintain reliable Web applications. MXimize will examine both front end (client) and back end (server) technologies with sessions constructed for developers, programmers, and designers. Visit http://www.mximizeconference.com/ for more information.
