Gift Idea for Aspiring Bloggers

ByMike McBride December 17, 2010 Reading Time: 1 minute

A couple of fellow Friends in Tech members, and the hosts of Technorama, Chuck Tomasi and Kreg Steppe, informed me the other day that the new version of their book about learning WordPress, Sams Teach Yourself WordPress 3 in 10 Minutes is now available.

Heck, I bet there’s even something new in there for many of us who’ve been using WordPress for awhile!

There’s only a week before Christmas, pick it up now! 😉
