Although I have written a lot recently about video training (since I know it works for me), I do acknowledge that there are plenty of people for which books are the best way to learn.

Sometimes it’s hard to admit as programmers when we really don’t have a clue what we’re doing. This is especially evident when learning a new platform or technology. I am going through this exact experience right now as I try to get back into the web programming world. New tags in HTML5, new capabilities in CSS3, and various frameworks that make JavaScript feel much more modern. As my recent posts about HTML5 resources…

Today’s resource is a quick one. I’m on the road speaking at Stir Trek so I don’t have a whole lot of time to comment on the resource.

If that wasn’t enough, they also have print and eBooks available from the site as well as a very active job board. Let…

Many people have been requesting more Xamarin.iOS samples for NucliOS. While I haven’t had a chance to work on any of my own recently (those are coming soon), I was happy to see that there are members of our community who have been taking it upon themselves to work on some. Claudio Sanchez has taken SteveZ’s “Creating a Netflix style iOS Grid” blog post and sample and recreated it using Xamarin…

Today’s HTML5 resource is Tuts+. Tuts+ is a tutorial site that contains tutorials for a wide variety of subjects, including web development and design. It’s something I’ve been using in conjunction with Code School (yesterday’s resource) to help me get up to speed with the web world.

I’m currently going through a bit of a learning process trying to get up to speed with the web world and HTML5. As someone who has dedicated most of my time the past few years on desktop and mobile platform development, there’s a lot to learn. Not only do I need to get the basics under my belt, but I also have to keep up with new things that seem to come out every day. It is a lot to keep track of and I’ve been developing…
