SitePoint is raising money to help those affected by the recent Victorian bushfires by holding a 5-for-1 book sale! Buy any 5 qualifying PDF books (yes, soft copies only) for the price of 1 — only US$29.95! This offer runs from Wednesday (yesterday) to Friday (tomorrow), so don’t wait — buy them now! 100% of the US$29.95 goes directly to fund-raising organizations, no strings attached.

As of this writing, SitePoint has raised over US$140,000 (over AU$200,000)! As a web designer and/or developer, you too can help out. There is a wide selection of books to choose from, so take your time and make your $29.95 worth it! (Then again, helping the Aussies is worth more than enough in itself!)

If you need ideas on what to buy, here’s the list of books I’ve just purchased:

  1. The Principles of Beautiful Web Design
  2. Everything You Know About CSS Is Wrong!
  3. The PHP Anthology: 101 Essential Tips, Tricks & Hacks, 2nd Edition
  4. Build Your Own Database Driven Website Using PHP & MySQL, 3rd ed.
  5. The Principles Of Successful Freelancing

This is both an awesome bargain and an awesome contribution. Let’s help the world — five PDFs at a time :)
