Hey everyone,
I've been making a massive amount of headway in this lately so I figured I'd share. I've been going though the W3 web tutorials on html5, css3, sql and js whenever I have nothing else to do. Just wanted to let anyone who's trying to spin up on web knowledge that it's some pretty effective stuff. It's got a great layout and is pretty easy to understand.
I've been doing it in short bursts but after nearly a year I've spent maybe 80-100 total hours on it and retained everything pretty well. I've been seeing some good results too, just whipped up some simple layouts with buttons and php arrays. Nothing pretty but still pretty cool considering it's the only training I've had on it.
Most web designers I know don't actually get w3 certified but they've also been into it since myspace/friendster/livejournal. It's been a fun hobby so far and doesn't cost a damn thing which is great. If I keep up this learning rate I can probably be selling services (maybe to just friends and family, but heck I'll take that) within 18 months.
Not to shabby for a part time, free hobby.
