Introducing DogPhysics.com

Because a book isn’t a real book until it has a promotional website, I give you:

http://dogphysics.com

the official(ish) site for promoting How to Teach Physics to Your Dog, which will be published this December (and can be pre-ordered on Amazon).

The site does, in fact, contain content you won’t find on the blog, including “interviews” with me an Emmy, so go check it out.

A note on the design: the site is cobbled together by me, using my cargo-cult CSS skills. It was more or less ready yesterday, until I discovered that it looked awful on Internet Exploder, because Microsoft chooses to interpret HTML formatting in a completely different way than any other browser. The only way I know to get the appearance consistent between Firefox and IE is to define absolute point sizes and pixel dimensions for everything, which sort of defeats the purpose of using CSS.

If you have CSS-fu that goes beyond the cargo cult level, and can make it look right on IE without resorting to absolute size definitions, send me an email (orzelc at steelypips, which is not a com but an org). I’d be willing to pay a moderate amount to not have to bang on this myself.
