Win a copy of ​“The Book of CSS3”

Today we have another awesome giveaway for all WDD readers where you can win 1 of 5 copies being given away of The Book of CSS3 As you know, CSS3 is the technology behind most of the eye-catching visuals you see on the Web today, but the official documentation can be dry and hard to follow and browser implementations are scattershot at best. This is where Peter Gasston’s latest book can come in really handy. The Book of CSS3 translates the dense technical language of the CSS3 specification into plain English and shows you what CSS3 can do right now, in all major browsers. It contains real-world examples and a focus on the principles of good design, it extends your CSS skills, helping you transform ordinary markup into stunning, richly-styled web pages. Read on for more details about the book and info on how to participate… Description: You’ll master the latest cutting-edge CSS3 features and learn how to:
