The Web Design Business Kit will help you turn your talent for web design into a profitable business. It's jam-packed with: proven profit strategies, 40 ready-to-use business documents, access to a private forum and whole lot more.

That one doesn't interest me too much, but it may interest someone, and there are 20 days left to go yet.

I don't agree - based on the one Sitepoint book that I have: CSS Anthology.

Hi,

That is the reason for the question, to ask folks who have looked at the books, to see if they have any redeeming techie value.

Also if they are easy-read, hard-copy CD included, low price, tutorial type things. If the book was hard-copy with CD it could be a special deal even if not Que or Howard Sams (or whoever is especially good these days).

It does not look like the real specials are hard-copy.

Note if they do what they did last year the last day of offers will be any of the previous offers so if you miss something you want check out the last day!

Good call. It's on!

I just got an email:
Hi there,

Oh yeah, you knew it was coming. And it's here. ALL our December
Deals are OPEN again for today ONLY!

It's a bit of a pain to navigate, but check out Day 22, you can select ebooks from dropdowns.

Don't forget that some of the eBooks are cheaper in the daily delas packs (sorry you have to wade through the days) and some days have good offers on real boo & eBook combo packs too.

Also note not all of the eBooks are in the day 22 dropdown list.
