By Land, Sea or Air – A travel blog based on the MyKipple project

By Land, Sea or AirWe’ve been talking about taking a road trip through the USA for a long time, so when my TV job ended in October we decided now was the time. And in true blogger fashion, a road trip required a dedicated blog just for that and nothing else. This also presented an opportunity for me to show people how far you can push the MyKipple.com design I created for my new book Sams Teach Yourself Micrsoft Expression Web 3 in 24 Hours.

The result was ByLandSeaOrAir.com – a WordPress based site with a theme that utilizes all the tips and techniques showcased in the book. Fact is if you go in and lift out all the code and graphics from the new site you’ll see that it matches the final project in the book almost line by line.

So the site serves two purposes: To tell the world of our travels and to show that there really is no limit to what you can do once you understand the principles behind HTML and CSS. Enjoy.
