freeI will start with a small disclaimer - most of these are used books.  They're in great condition, but they're not brand new (except for the iPhone book). I'm in the process of clearing my shelves and decided that instead of dropping these off at the closest goodwill store or selling them on Amazon or eBay  I should instead give them away here to my readers.

I wish I had prizes for everyone who entered :( My goal in holding this contest, as stated in the initial post, was to get some exposure to the MODx content management system, to encourage people to participate and to share knowledge and ideas, and to see what people could build using MODx.  This was intended to be a learning experience, and I think I can say that this goal was, and continues to be met.

OK, this is my last call for submissions into the MODx blog contest.  I think almost everyone who had declared their intent to enter has submitted their entry, with the exception of a couple of people.

I'm excited to announce a new blog contest at the Coding Pad today!! :) In partnership with Dorien Herremans, author of the Drupal 6: Ultimate Community Site Guide ebook, we will be running a blog contest focused on building community websites with Drupal. I've been building a series of Drupal beginner tutorials here, but I'm sure you're itching to learn more, build more, and explore Drupal's power past the basics. Well, here's a suggestion for you - build a community website!! How?  By getting and learning, and working along with an excellent book - Drupal 6: Ultimate Community Site Guide ebook!! :) Up for grabs are three copies of this awesome ebook that walks you step by step through the process of building a Community Website using Drupal.  I wrote my inital impressions about this book in a prior blog post (Drupal 6: Ultimate Community Site Guide Book - Initial Impressions) -  and since then have continued to be impressed by the author's approach and the content of the book. How to Enter: It's real easy!
