Great article on how to start using CSS3 animations from Tuts+ .

via CSS3 Transitions And Transforms From Scratch.

If you have any interest in learning or brushing up on HTML/CSS, here’s a terrific, FREE resource – honestly, it’s better than any book or class that I’ve seen for this purpose.

30 Days to Learn HTML and CSS is a thirty-day video course designed to be completed over one month. Veteran web developer and trainer Jeffrey Way will take you through a new topic each day, giving you the building blocks you need to eventually code an entire website based on a PSD design.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn HTML and CSS, but either didn’t have the time, didn’t know where to start, or didn’t quite ‘get it’, we’re pretty sure you’re going to love this free course. All you need to give us in return is 10 minutes a day to go through each video and build your knowledge.

It’s a great chance to learn something new for just 10-15 minutes a day.

This is your tech conscience speaking. It is time to backup your data. Ok, you should probably change your Brita filter, and you probably need to get an oil change. But most importantly.. you need to backup your data.

There has never been a better time to backup your computer’s data. Really – you can do it all for free, almost without ANY thought. This is especially important if you have a laptop, which many folks do – the reason being, you have one small hard drive, and that’s it. DO NOT RELY on Windows “system restore” or “repair” functions.. if the hard drive has errors, these “features” are useless – and this is almost always the case. I have an external drive on my computer at home – where I backup all data.. but that’s really not enough (if say, your computer is hit by lightning).

Enter.. the Internet.

I am a seriously amateur photog armed with a DSLR and.. a knack. Not sure if it is a good knack or a bad knack, but I love to take pictures. My brother has been using Smugmug for quite some time, and I finally got on board a couple of years ago. I was getting really tired of Snapfish and the like – since you could only see crummy small images, deal with ads, and have to login. Smug is my personal art gallery – I show what I want, and people can see the photo just as I intended. You can get prints, gifts, and even get your ORIGINAL file backups anytime you want. They are a small company, and care about their customers.

If you take a lot of photos, it is time to move away from Flickr and the like. Check it out. Here are some of my fav’s.

Welcome to Pete’s Web Work. This little site will be showcasing technologies, services, and whatever else I find interesting – stuff that you likely should keep in mind. I don’t have a set menu of services – I am into the open ended style of consultancy and offer budget-minded solutions for what you need.

Need a website? Easy. Got a website, but need it rebuilt? Sure. Have a site, like it, but need some help maintaining or promoting? No problem. Think your current web host is awful, and need help moving to  a better one? Surely. Questions on this new fangled “social media” trend? Cake.

If it’s web related, I can help.
