Hello dear EE-lovers!

Its been awhile when i last time were active here and “there”. Have had something huge changes in business and have had to travel, write articles etc. so i’m totally out of the date what comes to this side of the world - that is making creative websites and working with EE wonderland.

Mostly i would be more than happy if someone of you update me whats new in EE based places, CSS world, jQuery and other interesting parts of making sites.

What i would love to get is mainly links to most interesting sites where also might found good tutorials and maybe something commercial that i could/might buy.

To be clear here - i work only with EE today so im not so interested what comes to WP, Joomla! etc. I want to focus into one really good CMS and…well, in my little world it’s still EE =)

Please be so kind and update me - i havent been able to follow anything in the past 4-6 months so there has to be something that is interesting, new and lovely, thanks follow members for all your help and hints,

- Pete

Well, yours was a rather open ended question, wouldn’t you agree? Also, different things are important to different people.

Cmon Ingmar - anything will do for me. I’m always interested to see, read and try new things and stuff. And better, i love to learn something new that is suitable to use within EE and what might add something interactive or otherwise interesting to website itself. But ok, are there something new and cool in this area that can be used in imageposting or commenting or is there something new and cool animation efects around that you can use in what ever ya like =)

As said, im starting to warm up with EE again and i need inspiration to make something..something to test with and see if i might use it in some way in some projects…

The truth is that i keep heading to same sites and there has not been anything new so therefore i came and wrote this here cos i know here is the kindest and best people what comes in EE and all what comes around it.

Ok, and yes - i need to rebuild 2 of my own sites soon so…i need that inspiration to make them differently now =)

That’s probably the best tip of them ALL!

I used TweetDeck, follow #ee & #ExpressionEngine + many EE developers.
Keeps me in the loop.

It’s a struggle even to keep focused. This is the best of my AD/HD & GTD.
The exceptionally slow growth of my web dev projects is eclipsed by my patience, understanding and desire to learn AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE as I slowly progress.

css3.info is great

24ways.org and alistapart are both essential reads.
