Transitioning to Web Design and Web Development.
August 9, 2010

Hi,
Some of my best posts (at least IMHO) are derived from questions put to me by students and visitors to one of our ‘killer’ sites.
So, this time around, I have a great question from an old school Oracle developer who wants to get into the web game:
“Hi Stefan,
Speaking for myself, I’m a former Oracle application and database developer (10 yrs exp) who’s looking to transition to freelance web design/development, and will likely become a subscriber to KillerSites University in short order.
My question for you is this: would I need to shell out for Dreamweaver in order to derive maximum benefit from the site’s video tutorials (HTML/CSS/JavaScript/PHP/mySQL)? Or, could I get by using a combination of free tools, such as Amaya w/TopStyle Lite?

Killersites gets a new server.
July 15, 2010

Hi,
Some of you may have noticed some strange behavior over the last few days on the site, you haven’t been drinking too much … we are in the middle of server migration and that tends to inject gremlins into the mix.
… No worries though, we should be tiptop within a day or two and all will be well.
I appreciate your patience.

Is our home page too commercial looking?
June 28, 2010

Hi,
I always find it a challenge to balance the aesthetic of the site, while still keeping it usable. On top of that, I don’t want to overload visitors with my sales pitch (for my video courses) … yet I still want to sell videos.
