Among the latest in the famed-and-fabulous “Dummies” series from Wiley Publishing is the 6th Edition of HTML, XHTML & CSS for Dummies by Ed Tittel and Jeff Noble. SheTech and Company is proud to be part of this project in the form of hosting provider and content manager for the companion web site, which can now be found at http://www.edtittel.com/html4d6e/.The book is an updated look at HTML and XHTML, the late-entry successor to the long-lasting HTML code, and throws in a great introduction to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) — a concept of which we at SheTech and Company are quite fond: the sites we design and build here are styled almost exclusively with CSS, which drives the visual styles for both regular web sites and those driven by Content Management Systems (including this one)and eCommerce/shopping sites.

The companion site offers live looks at the code samples offered in the books, as well as the code samples themselves. The site will continue to expand its offerings, soon making a community forum available for readers to pose questions and offer suggestions.

We are pleased to be part of this excellent project, and hope you take advantage of both the book and the site — each one is a great introduction to creating and designing Web pages, and taken together are a terrific resource for understanding the World Wide Web.

A seasoned trainer, marketer, web producer and front-end developer, solutions architect, writer, consultant, broadcaster, recording engineer, and public speaker, I've worked in eLearning, Instructional Design, CMS, Marketing Automation and CRM (especially Marketo, ActiveCampaign, and SimplyCast), content delivery and management, taxonomy, SEO, media production and technical support. I bring a unique blend of experience and expertise.

Through RadHaus (formerly SheTech and Company), and in partnership with ELK // Obscura Media, and Prove digital marketing agencies, I have supported enterprise clients in marketing automation implementation and operations, digital marketing and data strategies. I help design and operationalize custom integrated marketing programs for businesses, working with audience/user group segmentation, SEO, web analytics, design and UX best practices, multimedia, social media and other strategic web design and delivery mechanisms. I also do hands-on media production and arts marketing, allowing me to remain involved in the arts.

As part of Marketo's education team, I managed the production and publication of eLearning modules, and was a key member of the LMS implementation and certification development teams.

A consultant on the Web Operations team for OppenheimerFunds in New York, I offered technical, production, and strategy support on a major web site redesign project.

As Managing Editor for an online news magazine published by NetQoS, I supervised and managed the migration of the site from a legacy content management system to a .NET-based commercial system. I maintained the site and the content, updating the magazine with new content from industry analysts and technical experts on a weekly basis.

My earliest foray into both technology and training was as a software trainer for logistics company Cheetah Software Systems, helping create an implementation and training practice standard for the company, and building their user documentation.
