Finishing things you Start

I am in the process of finishing off a little booklet I wrote about 4 years ago that explains what the different parts of a web page are and what the different bits do. It is very high level and covers the three main items which you have to pay for to get your basic website up and running (lets walk before we start trying to run eh?) I know some of you wont really be interested but I found when I first started looking into web develpment that getting the grasp of these concepts helped it all fit into place. Suddenly it all made sense and I guess that is the main reason I decided to write it. Originally I was going to call it "WWW for Dummies" but obviously that name has already been taken - Then a working title was "Websites for Grannies" but apparently that is aegist and sexist - So the next idea was "Websites for Scarecrows" and the uninspiring "Websites Made Simple" - In the end I decided that I would write it under the title of "Websites In A Nutshell".

The thinking behind this was at least two fold in that as the document is only just over a dozen pages long then I was condensing the whole thing into a tiny encapsulated form. This also meant I was able to asociate with squirrels and the O'Rielly books sprung immediately to mind
s sprung immediately to mind\. Then I discovered a myriad of different squirrels each of which had a O'Reilly book cover dedicated to it.
