The Web sites listed in this section are helpful resources on Expression Web.
This is the Web site I created as a resource for readers of my books. It will be updated regularly with new information. The URL is www.jimcobooks.com and you can reach me via e-mail at [email protected].
Thomas Brunt’s excellent help site on Expression Web is located at www.firstexpression.com.
This is the official blog of the Expression team at Microsoft. There is information here on other Expression products as well. The URL is blogs.msdn.com/xweb/.
The by-Expression Web site (www.by-expression.com) is Cheryl D. Wise’s excellent resource on Expression Web. Cheryl is a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) in Expression Web.
These resources are general Web design sites I’ve found helpful over the years.
The InformIT network contains a plethora of information on all technical topics. It also offers a top-notch search engine so you can locate any topic you need easily. It’s available at www.informit.com.
Always on the cutting edge, Webmonkey is an invaluable resource. You can find it at www.webmonkey.com.
While their obvious anti-Microsoft bias can sometimes detract from the content, O’Reilly is irrefutably one of the most important providers of information on information technology. The site is not focused only on Web design, but they do focus on the topic often. The URL is www.oreillynet.com.
The W3C Web site is required reading for anyone involved in Web design. You can find them at www.w3.org.
The resources listed here provide excellent information on ASP.NET.
The asp.netPRO Web site offers some great information at no charge. Premium content is available to those who subscribe to the magazine, something I highly recommend you do. You can find the site at www.aspnetpro.com.
The 4GuysFromRolla.com Web site has been a staple for ASP and ASP.NET developers for a very long time. Give it a look at www.4guysfromrolla.com.
The official ASP.NET Web site (appropriately located at www.asp.net) is the best place to get information on ASP.NET straight from the horse’s mouth. Many members of the ASP.NET product group use it as a conduit for information on emerging ASP.NET technologies as well.
The DotNetJunkies Web site is a great place for articles, videos, and more on ASP.NET and other Microsoft .NET technologies. You can find the site at www.dotnetjunkies.com.
