This is more of a web design post than anything to do with photography, but it seems that a number of prominent publisihing houses that specialize in Web Design/Development books have gone under. I’ve bought quite a few books published by friends of ED - their books taught me the fundamentals of Photoshop, Flash and Actionscript - and there were many more titles that I wanted to buy. Wrox Press and glasshaus have also bitten the proverbial dust.

“Wrox Press, along with sibling companies friends of ED and glasshaus, have notified current authors to stop work on all projects, promising news after a 3-4 week hiatus. Presumably, liquidators will attempt to sell off the projects (along with the authors’ contracts) to 3rd parties during this time, though most authors have already begun the search for new jobs.” (SitePoint Tech Times newsletter)
