This week’s videocast is sponsored by the Art Institute of Pittsburgh.
Here’s what you’ll find in this week’s videocast:

XML is one of those “buzz” technologies that people talk about but don’t really understand. Help has arrived in the form of the book A Designer’s Guide to Adobe InDesign and XML,
by industry veteran Jim Maivald.
Macworld Expo 2008 is just one week away. If you’ll attend the show, go first to MacworldBound for
tips and tricks to make your Macworld 2008 experience a good one.
Get Creative will be on the show floor at Macworld Expo interviewing attendees and exhibitors. I’ll bring you a videocast every night. Find me on the show floor and maybe you’ll see yourself on video the next day!
Top 5 Web Sites of the Week
1. Web Apps for the iPhone. Take your iPhone to the next level with web apps — Web sites designed specifically for the phone’s 3.5-inch screen.
2. Flickr is a diverse online community with many subgroups you can
be a part of. I recently joined a group called 365 Days. The Challenge: Take one self-portrait each day for a year.
3. Many of the how-to books for creative pros come with a companion CD. However, Peachpit Press has taken this to the next level with PeachpitTV,
its name for its online audio and video podcasts online for you to explore.
4. Twitter is a silly-sounding name for a tool that can
actually help you be more productive. This unique approach to communication and networking is based on the simple concept of status: What
are you doing — right now? What are your project team members doing — right now? With Twitter, you answer this question over SMS, IM,
or the Web, and the responses are shared between contacts or Project Teams.
5. MacHeist II is an online game and a source of free and
bargain software. Play it now!
