"Shoestring design challenges us to do more with less. It prompt use to push our skills harder (while continually learning new ones) and to truly focus on what our users need and what our sites absolutely, positively must deliver."

Carrie Bickner takes the reader through the steps a small team would use to create and maintain a web site, with advice on how to make the web site more effective at less cost. She recommends using current Web standards, XHTML and CSS, for the present and future history. She does not recommend duplicating efforts to accommodate the shrinking number whose browsers do not meet the current standards.

This book will be interesting and helpful for individuals or small teams who want to produce a professional quality web site at lower or amateur costs.
