Alhamdulillaah, I’ve been able to make some major- and sorely-needed-upgrades to Audio Islam. Interestingly enough, for the vast majority of people, these changes won’t really be that visible as they are all behind-the scenes.

Alhamdulillaah, my good friend Belal Khan of Leechon Films fame has started (a while back, actually) a program called Message Mastery. You should get the full explanation from the website, but the basic gist of it is that it is a training seminar focused on developing masterful messages through the medium of video.
He’s released a few videos that are freely available that are samples of what the entire program entails. I found the one entitled “Three POWER Principles of Filmmaking” to be quite refreshing in how simple, yet effective, such techniques can be. Even more beneficial is that the tips he provides, while framed around the production of video media, are general enough to be beneficial in almost any context.
Give his site a check-out and leave some comments as he’s very keen on getting & responding-to feedback from his visitors & members of his program.
Disclaimer: Belal is just my friend - I am neither associated with Message Mastery nor am I enrolled in the program…yet.

I will make an attempt to reference other excellent sources that exist throughout the webiverse wherever appropriate, but for the most part, a lot of these ideas have just come from my own exploration and experimentation with the specification.
Some of the things I will be covering in this tutorial series include (but are not limited to):
Comments, questions, and suggestions related to the topics presented are always welcome, and I will do my best to answer them, but no promises are being made. Continue Reading »
Dave Raggett, one of the original developers of the HTML spec (and the one whose guide I first studied to learn HTML), and the original author of HTML Tidy, an HTML cleanup utility, has written a utility called HTML Slidy which is an outstanding tool for creating pure, XHTML standards-compliant & semantic web-based presentations.

While at work “working” today, I came across what I feel is arguably the most beautiful design yet for the CSS Zen Garden demonstration site. Continue Reading »
