Have my name on the credits for a movie
Worth doing, but hard work! 4 years ago

I am credited as the editor of Generator Gawl on IMDB. I actually have many other movie & tv show credits, but that (rather obscure) show is the only one listed! Was it fun to get a credit on a movie? No! It was hard work!



learn javascript
Javascript resources 4 years ago

I’ve bought several books about JavaScript. One of the best is the O’Reilly book JavaScript: The Definitive Guide by David Flanagan. Another good one is SAMSTeach Yourself JavaScript in 24 Hours. I don’t think you can actually teach yourself JavaScript in 24 hours, nevertheless, this is a good book.
I also bought DHTML and CSS for the World Wide Web by Jason Cranford Teague. Apparently DHTML or Dynamic HTML is a combination of CSS, JavaScript, DOM (Document Object Module), & XHTML. This is an excellent book, not necessarily good for learning JavaScript, but very good!
