Readings

Here are some great places to go for more information on your assignments and lectures. Most of the sites you will go to below were created by Andy Harris and Leanne Burrow. You can tell who has made what from the URLs (aharris = Andy; lburrow = Leanne; mlion = me). Without Andy and Leanne I would never have understood the web or web design. I am a product of their course and I am forever in their debt. I hope you enjoy their sites and learn as much from them as I did. Indeed, I do stand on the shoulders of giants.
