Resources:
In what spare time I have, I enjoy working on a variety of personal projects, articles and screencasts. I have a
wide range of interests, and if I produce anything that might be useful to
the web design
community, I'll post it here.

Screencasts:
When I have the time, I enjoy producing a variety of simple but useful screencasts that discuss web design & development (HTML, CSS, Javascript and PHP), CMS integration, and Adobe Photoshop. If you have any comments or suggestions for topics you would like me to cover, please leave me a quick note.

- Setting up MAMP on Mac OS X: View Screencast
- Exporting a database using PHPMyAdmin: View Screencast
In addition to my personal screencasts, I've produced 55 screencasts for KillerSites.com. These screencasts are available for viewing in the KillerSites University (monthly subscription required.) Source files are also available to download.
Looking for help with something in one of these videos? Have a question or comment? I'm an administrator on the KillerSites forums, so feel free to post if you need help.
KillerSites has uploaded samples of some of the videos to YouTube, so take a look at the links below.
