In the previous post in this series on IM 101 - Web Design 101, I wrote about the importance of learning the basics of HTML and JavaScript along with a sprinkling of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). I talked about how grabbing some free HTML/CSS templates and hacking away is probably the most direct way of learning basic HTML. Where things start to get a little confusing is what tools to use to edit HTML pages.

May 7th, 2008 · No Comments
Jeremy Palmer of “Quit Your Day Job” has launched a free training course called “The Black Ink Project” for beginning affiliate marketers. It’s a 4-week program consisting a 5 Webinars M-F each week with a week off between modules. The first module began this week and if the first 2 Webinars are any indication, this is going to be the definitive resource for anyone thinking about getting started with affiliate marketing.

IM 101 - Web Design 101
May 3rd, 2008 · No Comments
OK, it’s now time to begin fleshing out the courses that I laid out in the IM 101 Basic Curriculum. The first one in the basic curriculum is “Web Design 101” and oh Lord, it’s a doozy! After thinking about it a bit more, I’m inclined to think that this course is best split out into at least 2, maybe 3 separate courses.
That’s because there are several components to the topic:
- Code Aspects (HTML, JavaScript, W3C Standards)
- Tools (HTML Editors, Graphics Tools)
- Design Aspects (Graphic Design, Usability, Page Layout, etc)
