HTML5 has interested me since , and ever since then I have learnt a lot about it. Naturally I don’t know everything but there are some areas I was quite confident of my knowledge in. This book changed some of that.
Whilst I’ve already reviewed a number of HTML5 books, this is the first of the “cookbook” style and indeed the first technical cookbook that I’ve laid my eyes on. Written by Chuck Hudson and Tom Leadbetter (of HTML5 Doctor fame), the book aims to teach developers HTML5 through examples of differing complexity.
Ever since I saw this book mentioned in Issue 23 of the HTML5 Weekly newsletter, and the internal glimpse that the book’s website gave, I eagerly awaited its arrival.
How quickly a week can change things. Last week I announced that I had changed the look of my blog and that it was pretty much going to stay that way for a while as I didn’t have the time to create my own theme.
The famed HTML5 Doctors, Remy Sharp and Bruce Lawson have released the second edition of their extremely popular book, Introducing HTML5. I wrote a review of the first edition back in and eagerly awaited the release of this revised edition.
My book HTML5 Multimedia: Develop and Design is finally published and available at all good online book stores. Naturally times of availability in different countries and stores varies slightly (e.g. here in the UK), but overall the book is out.
