Description
Over the past few years, the Web has become completely integrated into the fabric of society. Most businesses have Web sites, and it’s rare to see a commercial on television that doesn’t display a URL. The simple fact that most people now know what a URL is speaks volumes. People who didn’t know what the Internet was several years ago are now sending me invitations to parties using Web-based invitation services.
Perhaps the greatest thing about the Web is that you don’t have to be a big company to publish things on it. The only things you need to create your own Web site are a computer with access to the Internet and the willingness to learn. Obviously, the reason you’re reading this is that you have an interest in Web publishing. Perhaps you need to learn about it for work, or you’re looking for a new means of self-expression, or you want to post baby pictures on the Web so that your relatives all over the country can stay up to date. The question is, how do you get started?
Also, unlike other books on this subject, this book doesn’t focus on any one platform. Regardless of whether you’re using a PC running Windows, a Macintosh, some flavor of UNIX, or any other computer system, many of the concepts in this book will be valuable to you. And you’ll be able to apply them to your Web pages regardless of your platform of choice.
This book is intended to be read and absorbed over the course of 21 days (although it depends on how much you can absorb in a day). On each day you’ll read one lesson on one area of Web site design. The lessons are arranged in a logical order, taking you from the simplest tasks to more advanced techniques.
