24 ways – an advent calendar for geeks
with christmas approaching fast – Drew McLellan is back with his advent calendar for geeks :)

The idea behind this site is to count down the days with a new article every day on different aspects of webdesign and development. Written by various authors the articles span topics from design and usability over coding techniques and browser work-arounds to customer relations. If you are a webdesigner or developer – there’s something for all of us and I’m sure you will find something of interest.
Now in its 4th year – this year the site features a new design, pushing the boundaries and rejuvinating the site’s look. Please be aware that it is assumed you are using one of the modern, standard compliant browsers for this, eg Firefox or Safari. As the site is targeted at us webgeeks – this design makes no compromises and does not claim to comply with all browsers. Heavily critisized for this – I am all for this new design and setup (see my personal blog post for more). If you cannot take some risks with a design aimed at webgeeks – when can you?
