Theme Tumblr Like a Pro: New Rockable Book

Theme Tumblr Like a Pro: New Rockable Book

As Tumblr continues its path toward domination, I was shocked to find that there isn’t a single Tumblr book available anywhere…until now! Tumblr is fantastically intuitive, however, there’s a great deal of power available to you — if you learn how to harness it! That’s my goal in this new Rockable Press book + companion screencasts: teach you how to be a Tumblr pro! Along the way, we’ll learn how to create customization options, work with the Tumblr API, allow for added functionality, and a plethora of other awesome things!

I’m proud to announce that it’s now been released by Rockable Press! So, if you’re at the point in your learning where this might be helpful, please do read on and consider checking it out.

WordPress 2.7 Cookbook

    WordPress 2.7 Cookbook + Free E-Books!

So if you don’t have time to read for an hour straight, you can always pick up a web dev cookbook and learn a few neat techniques within minutes.

    WordPress 2.7 Cookbook is no different, and though it’s more of a quick reference book, rather than one that you would traditionally read front-to-back, I still found myself devouring the pages within a day or so.
