Books

Welcome to the Irish Guy Book Corner – unlike many people interested in NEW Technology. I am not interested in Bells and Whistles; I am involved in understanding and relating how to best use the tools of NEW Technology.

With each digital advancement, an array of new digital possibilities open, as does an entire set of new or revised rules and guidelines.

Keeping ahead of the Digital Media trends requires an understanding of the tools of your industry.

Long gone are the days of launching “Notepad” to write some clean crisp code – web developers have a much larger job to do. Web Developers and Digital Media Artist have to deliver the content they create with the industry tools they have available, to the target market they need to reach.

Any experienced Digital Media professional will confirm that most difficult digital media problem has the simplest solution, while the easiest tasks can be impossible to complete. Deploying media rich content requires a wealth of tools, knowledge and experience. Experience knows when to reach for a book. The book titles I have worked on address how to best use the software, to reach your real-world goals quickly and successfully.

My objective is to help development the future of Digital Media by creating prefect solutions that are adaptable for various customizable website installations, online applications and Online Multimedia Players. To help you be effective.

All book titles are available from Amazon.

Other book titles that I have found to be useful.

Adobe Creative Suite

There are many books out there about working with Adobe Creative Suite – these are the top three books that I have enjoyed using.

The first half of the book addresses the many new features that set the Adobe Creative Suite 4 apart from earlier versions of the Creative Suite. The Class Room in a Book series is created by Adobe – normally giving this series of book an upper hand on new information and features. I highly recommend this book title.

Interesting tutorials that are step by step and easy to follow.

Good resource to help trouble shoot problems within the Creative Suite.
