    I don't know about their books, but this page is fun to play with: http://www.friendsofed.com/books.html

    BTW, clio: it's great to see that your new design includes a tutorials section. I'll be a return visitor.

    Same thing here... I bought Foundation Flash, but never got past the second chapter... too boring... flashkit.com is an awesome resource though.

    Heh, I lent my book to a student of mine who never returned it oh well, no loss really. LOL

    also if you're interested, oringe.com has PDFs on how to recreate past versions of their site. It's def. pretty cool and worth checking out. It's like a free book Well they have a book too, but I just took the free long PDFs
