Anyone who likes nature and/or Attenborough will love this book, Life Stories by Sir David Attenborough. In this book, Attenborough discusses various animals and plants looking at their environment and behaviour. The book conveys a great deal of wonder at the world we live in, which is excellently transferred to anyone who reads this fantastic book. Some of the animals include Salamanders, Birds of Paradise and the Platypus.

I was recently sent a review copy of "Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery" by Matt Butcher. Having recently started to use JQuery with Drupal it was a shame I had not discovered it earlier.

Anyone who knows me knows I love to use the Drupal Content Management System (CMS). In my opinion Drupal is relatively easy to use, although it can be daunting knowing how to configure the system to accomplish the desired working website. For example, setting up a blog with Drupal is easy, but how do you add a gallery? What if you would like to pull RSS feeds from another source or even run an e-commerce website?

Okay so you have probably seen "Long Way Down" on TV and could buy the DVD, but the book is fantastic.

Too many website developers still code their websites for older browsers. For example some still build their websites aiming them at Internet Explorer 5 or even earlier and then add additional functionality for newer browsers. This is known as progressive coding.
