It will be the definitive guide to web programming using everyone’s favorite rapid web application development framework. Of course, you can get almost all of it online, for free. Visit site »

Mediaphormedia, the company formerly known as World Online, is hiring a Senior Interaction Designer — basically, my old job. I can testify that this is a tremendous company to work for and that Lawrence, KS is a wonderful place to live and work. The town is cool, the bars are great, the music scene is phenomenal (maybe better than Seattle!) and the cost of living is insanely low. This is a great, great gig for someone out there. Feel free to e-mail me if you want more info on the company, the job, or Lawrence.

Also, on the name “Mediaphormedia” (I can say this, now that I’m not there anymore): It sucks. We know it. No one likes it. But there were intellectual property concerns over World Online (which was never a very good name, itself), and upper management (which is normally very “with it”) made a rash, hasty decision on a new name. Oh well. Still a damn cool place to work. They just got brand new offices, too. Visit site »
