On Nov 26, 2014 Diego Gonzalez wrote: Good book. Very good tricks
Since the false information that we use only a fraction of our brain (due to insufficient technology of the time to record the full functioning of the brain) to diffuse have popularized a number of more or less serious techniques to harness all potential. This book is a compilation of some of the best
The techniques are very good, but the book was published eight years ago (before tablets and smartphones) as examples and additional information are outdated. Nor is it a good choice programs that can be downloaded from the website are made in Perl.
But nevertheless worth reading. Full Review >

A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Dynamic Websites
Diego's rating:
5.0
On Aug 14, 2014 Diego Gonzalez wrote: All in one book
This book is an excellent introduction to the five technologies that will dominate the industry landscape in the coming years. While it is focused on creating dynamic websites not cost much to transfer knowledge to creating apps for all mobile platforms. While the price (at least in ebook format) may seem a bit excessive need to be aware that the content is equivalent to 5 books introductory separately.
Some web development professionals have objected that except for the choice of the chosen HTML5 technologies are not the best or the most current. I do not share that criticism is a book for beginners and ideal to meet the needs of users who need to create websites that meet their own needs. Full Review >

In an age where new technologies should make us more productive, the opposite effect occurs. Every time we have more things to do and the same amount of time to do them. Subtract time from sleep, leisure or family a short-term solution that ends turning against us. Luckily there are people like Tamara Myles.
