OOJS book free chapter 8 on YUIblog

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Chapter 8 of the Object-Oriented JavaScript is available at the YUIblog.com. Enjoy!

Chapter 2 is also available at the publisher's site.

Probably thanks to YUIBlog, the book was #7#6 in the JavaScript category on Amazon today, not bad. It's the highest I've seen it, not that I'm obsessed with checking sales rank. It's the journey, not the destination :)

Other than that.. pretty busy lately. Off to Boston for Ajax Experience next week, where I'll be giving 3 (three!) talks. Will have some good stuff to share after that - ppts and a new tool!

 

first book review and a new instrumental piece

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

The first review for OOJS is posted on Amazon - 5 stars, yeey! (My copies still hasn't arrived, talk about weird, eh?). If anyone is interested in reading my book and posting a review on Amazon or some other site, let me know, my publisher might be willing to send you a copy.

Here's another song I just recorded today, a sort of metal/grunge thing with a melody of some sort even :) Enjoy loud!

The book, the book

Friday, July 25th, 2008

OOJS is almost officially out. I mean it's out officially, but not yet up on amazon, which these days means it's not really out, is it. It will probably take a couple more days, maybe next week.

So far there has been a great interest, even enthusiasm, expressed by people running web dev sites who would like to do a review, I'll list the reviews and give link love back as soon as I see the published reviews. If you're interested in reviewing the book on your web site/blog, doing an interview with me or something to that effect, pitch the idea to me (ssttoo at gmail) with your URL, etc, I'll promptly forward to the great marketing folks at my publisher, Packt.

Thanks!

OOJS
