# The whole Puma ads thing has taken on a life of its own (much like a certain oversized snack food), with threatening letters from lawyers flying around.

It's basically just a way to use shorthand to do your formatting. The thing that got me was the shorthand way to handle those crazy abbreviations, which is handy when you're talking about CSS(Cascading Style Sheets) and XHTML(eXtensible HyperText Markup Language) all day long. MT-Textile is the new black, as far as I'm concerned. # It looks like Wrox Press is taking a dirt nap. Unfortunate, because I always thought their books were the best of the bunch. Maybe they'll open up all their content on ASP Today, although I've had a subscription that's been expired for at least 6 months now, and they haven't gotten around to turning it off.
