Creating Online Media

If you are looking for a book on how to create fantastic websites, this is not the book for you. This text books deals mainly with the written content of a website. It is all from the angle of a journalist's point of view for writing serious content on the web. The author has understood that technology would almost make the book obsolete the day it was published, so she has links at the end of each chapter to her own website which keeps the text up-to-date. This is a great source for novice webjournalists.
