Jeffrey Zeldman’s Designing With Web Standards

“Designing With Web Standards is for every web professional who wants to reach more users on more browsers, platforms, and devices – including wireless and hand-held devices – with less work, less maintenance, and at lower cost. It’s for designers, developers, site owners and managers who seek to end the costly spiral of obsolescence, where each new browser or Internet device means a whole new coding cycle and another line item on the budget. Few organizations today can afford the merry-go-round of coding and re-coding that has characterized web development until now.”

The book that got me started on building using standards. This book is always within arms reach. I like the light tone of the writing.

Get-a-Post

Get-a-Post is a WordPress plugin that allows you specify a post or Page (but just one) to be displayed. This can, for example, let you provide an informational note on your sidebar or front page, or a “static” article at the top of a category page or in a custom template, all the while using standard WordPress template tags to decide how it’s displayed.
