The economy -- as you might have heard -- has taken a torpedo right up its arse.
It’s getting better, but we’re not exactly living the pre-2008 lifestyle. In this Sumo’s opinion, it’s actually not that bad these days.
You see, people are still buying, selling, dining out, taking trips. We find a way to do these things. It may take a bit longer for some, but we still do it.
Depending on what your job is, though, it could take you a considerably longer time than your peers to be able to enjoy leisure activity.
And the old advice starts popping up in everyone's head. You need to work longer hours to make more money.
Or go back to school and get a degree that no one will really care about because that’s what you’re told you’re supposed to do.
NEVER!
Why work longer hours for the same hourly wage or to try to impress your boss so that you get a raise? (Which likely won’t happen by working longer hours.)
Why not do something entirely different that you actually enjoy, and get paid MORE for the same amount of hours, possibly even fewer hours?
It doesn’t take much to acquire a new skill (especially not a loan to go to school for it), when it’s open to anyone willing to learn it, and the demand for it is just getting higher!
Obviously, from reading the headline you know that I’m talking about learning HTML5.
Why HTML5
See where I’m going with this? You should probably hop on the HTML5 train (cliche, I know) and start absorbing everything you’ll need to build your own sites and apps.
So we talked to John Ulliman, founder of On The Wave, who has been working in interactive digital media since 1985. In 1991, he started his own studio, On The Wave Visual Communications, providing 2D and 3D graphics and animations for print, video, and the web.
This guy is your instructor. This guy knows what he’s talking about. This guy has got a course to teach you about HTML5 -- from the very basics to a completed site made with HTML5.
So sit back and take notes.
John’s course is $99.95 to download and start learning the fundamentals of HTML5 -- the correct way. You’ll be taken through 66 courses (Over 7 hours of instructional videos) and hand code your way to HTML5 glory.
But like I said, times are tough...
So not only did we get his course (for download only) on HTML5, but we’re SQUASHING the price down to $39.95! Wayyyy less than what you would pay for an outdated community college programming course.
Lucky you...
You could start your new path as a web developer and be caught up to the early adopters in such a short time, and even make a little money on the side helping out with some freelance projects.
Sincerely,
The “Got A Date With A Food Truck” Chief Sumo
P.S. You could learn everything in this course over a week with just an hour a day! But if for some reason you feel like you didn’t get what you paid for, this Sumo has made it my duty to give you a 100% guaranteed refund for any reason, any time before you die!

This is a beginner only video. We bought the deal but it is not applicable to anyone in our design firm, way too basic. The deal should have said this. HTML 5 is actually used only a few of times in the entire two disc video.

I have coded pages in the past, taught myself from books which is fine but this course helped me to understand why certain things are done the way they are AND added the bonus of showing some of the new features of HTML 5.
Yes, I would have like more and yes, I wish I could have asked questions but without a doubt this was well worth the time and the money.

In this course I got a refresher in HTML and learned that today's HTML is handled in large part by CSS. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and was excited to move on to the next lesson after. The most valuable thing is you learn in this course the best practices of coding cleanly. And yes, to be a wen page designer, you need to know at least as much about the code that is in the course.

Good savings, comparable to buying a book though.

Rated 2 because the description is not accurate but probably good for the right person (HTML beginner), read why:
These videos do not cover 100% of the bullet points listed on the description page (though it never explicitly says that these videos would).
I didn't watch all the videos (bought this yesterday) but based on about 30 minutes of watching and looking over all of the video titles, I never found anything about Local Storage which is why I was interested in purchasing this in the first place. Also, the description sort of (though not completely clear) mentions drag and drop but that was no where to be found among the video clips either. Plus, I never saw a single clip on Mobile Sites.
These videos do include use of the newer HTML5 tags (video, legend, section) but this is not for advanced users, it starts from the very basics. Probably really good for someone who has never written HTML and CSS before but was definitely the wrong product for me.
If you are new to HTML and/or still interested after reading the above I can at least say that the person making the video did a good job, very clear in making his points, very easy to understand and visually you can get a good understanding as to what is going. A little more than a 1GB split into 2 downloads.
