Making Safari and Expression Web play nice

Just a quick post to let you know that the xweb team has a post showing you how to get Safari for Windows to properly preview out of Expression Web. Handy little link, right here.

Some exciting bits about MIX07

Is anyone heading to MIX07? I'll be there and I'm looking forward to it. But today I found out two exciting bits of news.

First, every attendee will get a free copy of Windows Vista Ultimate AND Commemorative Edition of Expression Studio for attending. That's a pretty good deal if I do say so myself.

But the other thing that got me really excited was seeing the REMIX Contest. This is your chance to "remix" the MIX07 homepage, and possibly win a free trip to MIX07 or a free Zune. This could be a great way for you to get into using Expression, have some fun, and maybe win some big prizes. I'll submit something and be sure to share it with the LearnExpression community as well. Take a look at the REMIX Contest page for details and the files. And feel free to share your entries in the LearnExpression forum! Good luck!

Blog launches and site notes

I spent some time stylizing the Blogger provided layout today, so it gels with the rest of the site a little better. Its not perfect yet, but its good enough to make the blog live today.

As for the site, hopefully some of you noticed I put more videos live this week. I'm going to try to get several more shorter how-to type videos out in the next two weeks, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to email me or leave a comment here in the blog. I've been trying to go by some questions I've seen throughout the web already, and some things that I think are building blocks for beginners.

Also, one more note, its come to my attention that there's a problem with the forum, and it may require the relaunching of the forum. I apologize for this error, and I'll let everyone know when its updated.

First Blog Post

The blog is up and running now obviously. I'll need to add my own styling to it yet, but everything about this new site is one step at a time. More soon.
