Where I live, it’ll be 2010 in six hours. Wow – 2010! And that means, in five years, we’ll be in flying cars where the postal service isn’t as efficient as the weather. (First person who names that movie reference will be sent a web dev book.)
As the year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank all of you so much. While my job is to edit and create tutorials, I can promise that I’ve learned far more from the comments of these postings, and I’m grateful for that. I also would like to go over what I have planned for 2010…
More Design
Especially in the last few months, we’ve managed to focus almost exclusively on development-style tutorials. I can only post what is submitted, and we truthfully haven’t received many articles focused on design. That’ll be changing in 2010 – and I encourage you to submit your ideas to me at nettuts@tutsplus.com.
- Advanced CSS tutorials
- The process of designing a website
- How to build advanced menus
- Combining CSS and JavaScript
- Etc.
If you’re a successful ThemeForest author, or have some amazing design skills, please do contact me about writing tutorials, and even recording a screencast for our site. Please remember that compensation for Plus tutorials can go as high as $600, depending on the quality of the final product.
Broader Topics
Additionally, we’ll be focusing more on Air apps, as well as Ruby/Rails tutorials. If there’s anything that we don’t cover on Nettuts+, be sure to let me know within the comments. I promise to consider it!
Redesign
I can’t say much, but I’m fairly certain that the design of all the Tuts site will receive another evolutionary “remodeling,” so to speak. Going with the great design that we currently have, Collis and Derek will refine the layout further, as well as add some neat new features/categories.
Happy New Year!
So let’s meet back here in the next decade! Allie is giving me the evil eye right now – which means I have to close the computer for the night. Bye!

Happy new year to everybody, from Perú
Happy new year from Australia
Happy New Year to all, and Jeff, please do some RoR tuts! I went through the tedious process of installing it on my computer, got it to work, and now have no idea what to do with it. I think a bit of the JW magic would really shed some light on the already confusing language.
Happy new year! The site is awesome and i want to thank everyone participating in any form.
A minor(?) flaw that needs improvement though is the search functionality. I rarely can find what i am looking for even if i remember the title! Want an example? http://net.tutsplus.com/?s=javascript+from+scratch :)
Sorry, it’s actually a bad example since the title of the articles is “javascript from null”, but still there are many times i can’t find what i am looking for even though i remember most of the title or some key content.
Hapi Knew Yer! yOu u AlL….
Any specific Ruby on Rails stuff you’re looking for, I can cover just about anything.
Happy New Year Guys!
From Hungary !
Happy new year everyone.
This is the first time that we see Mr Jeffrey :D
Happy New Year.
Yeah – I realized that. That’s why I added the photo. :)
Always is good to add a face to the voice, makes me feel like I am learning it from someone I know or something. Makes it easier.
Happy new year everyone!
Happy New Year to Jeff & Net Tuts Family …..
Sorry for the late wish :|
A very happy new year to all..!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Everyone! That was a simplistic desk setup. The extMon looks so wide, do you like it that way?
Happy New Year Jeffrey, you look rather dapper with the coat. Looking forward to reading more of your articles.
Happy new year !!!!
Happy new year from sweden!
