So Packt Publishing is celebrating its 10th birthday,
and in honor of the event, they are making every one
of their e-books and videos available for $10. In 10
years, they’ve published 2,000 books – which is
absolutely amazing, and you can get as many e-books
as you want for $10 until July 5th, 2014.
So if you need to stock up on some good technical
reading, now’s the time!
What
are you waiting for? Go Get!
Note: If you don’t see the $10
price, make sure you go through the link directly
above and scroll down to the categories.

This is part 1 of a series regarding technical
writing. See
other related posts.
As you may or may not know, I’ve now written two
pretty large technical books (one was the second
edition of the first). If you want to know more about
those books, you can see all my
books here. This post is more about the
process of writing technical books, and
later posts will go into more detail about my
experiences with Packt Publishing (the publisher).

I’m so proud to announce that my new book,
PhoneGap 3.x Mobile Application Development
Hotshot is now available for purchase. It’s an
update to my earlier book, and it has been modernized
and updated for Cordova 3.x. Although the title
includes “PhoneGap” in the name, it generally uses
the Cordova Command Line Interface (“PhoneGap” is
more recognizable in the market).

So, it’s 2014, and this site has been due for a
redesign. As such, we’ve completely redone the look
and feel of the site and made it even more
responsive. We also started using Jekyll to generate
the site rather than use a single page design as the
prior design used.
While we’ve tested in several browsers and on many
different devices, if you do find something
that is broken, let us know.
