Designing for an Electronic Universe

Forward...
The transition from print publishing to the World Wide Web is almost as big a leap as that from quill-and-parchment to the printing press (or so I imagine, not having been there when it happened). Web publishing, in basic form, is not that difficult, as the explosion of websites atests. We are only beginning to comprehend the potential of this new medium, but the pace of development (a.k.a. change) is astonishing. What was cutting-edge last week is old news this. It is, in all senses, a very exciting time.
This sector is intended to provide resources for web publishing: basic information for those just starting out and more advanced material for those ready to explore the potential of the Web. To begin with, much of it will be links to other resources on the Web, but since I learned most of what I know from other people's websites, and via links on other people's websites, I'll post my picks for most useful resources in hopes they help someone else. If you've got suggestions for what I should add, please let me know.
