Updated Link section

2006 at 02.04 am posted by Veerle

Almost two years ago I created a PDF document full of handy CSS resources. Most of the links are still ok but I personally found that it was high time for an update. In our everyday work life we discover so many new links to bookmark. Personally I always have a hard time finding back my links in those bookmarks when I need them.

Reader suggestions

In the comments of that article many people suggested to put them online and that made me think about my link section of this blog when I was designing it. But as always the ideas are there but time was not ;) So if you visited that section before only a few links were there because of that fact.

The link section on steroids

So after an extended period of gathering quality links, categorizing them and making it all fit in the design, I’m proud to re-launch my link section today. It’s like the previous PDF file but multiplied by a factor of 3.  I hope I succeeded in presenting them in a usable way and that it isn’t too overwhelming. They certainly will make my life a little easier and I hope the same for you ;)

So go ahead and check out the link section!

You didn’t had the time to update your link section.
I don’t have the time to go trough all of them now. :)
It’s obvious you’ve been collecting all those great links and release them all at the same time just to tease us ;)

It’s a wonderful collection, I’ll visite this section often I guess. :)

The links page looks great and so does the entire site (as if nobody has said that).  Thanks for all the resources.

That’s a brilliant collection; many thanks for finding the time to put it together. I tend to work with clients whose in-house web people are not well informed about web standards but are keen to learn, and I’ve always pointed them to your PDF and told them that they could find all the information they need linked from there. Just a few days ago I was idly wondering if you had any plans to update it, and lo! here it is!

Now, like Thierry, I just have to find the time to read it all :-)

Its a great resource, butt, here come’s te butt, you forgot to mention the Belgium Showcase “Gigastyle”, similar to Csszengarden.
This is not a “please put my link”, it is more a reminder that we in Belgium also can do CSS stuff, you are the greatest proof of it.

Cool, always good to see if you have any new ones.. it can be time consuming spending all day “googling” for the idea tutorial or template.

I still like the mother of all web resources >> http://www.alvit.de/handbook/

cheers!

Very nice indeed. I’ve had a lot of these sites bookmarked but heving them organised is so much better.

I’ve just used them last night to tackle a css problem I’ve been having for some time now. Got it all fixed with this list of yours.

Thank you very much and keep up the good work.

Hi Veerle,

Just noticed that for the link ‘Top 10 Reasons to Learn CSS’ there is an extra ‘h’ in ‘http’ :)

Great resource page btw. Cheers.

Now that’s a nicely designed list of CSS links, if I do say so myself. I’ve probably read quite a few of them, but there are some that I hadn’t seen yet.

I should probably do a roundup of my own at some point.

I have almost as many CSS related links bookmarked as you but I must admit that yours are better organized!
Now I just need one bookmark to have all those sweet links bookmarked ;o)

Thank you Veerle!

*some witty remark* (none entering my mind after 10 minutes hard thinking, must be the weather)

Hey Veerle, I’m glad I finally got to meet you at @media.  I hope you had as much fun as I did at the conference.  As soon as I get my photos digitized and uploaded, I’ll send you a link.  Tomorrow I’m of to Belgium!  Exciting =)

Veerle,

thanks for all the links - such an amazing collection.  Especially the color pickers - I loved trying them out.  Also the typography presentation you did for @Media and links are very helpful, too.  Two of my favorite subjects - typography and color.

Hope you enjoyed your trips!
