In the past few days I’ve had the chance to catch up with web developer and designer, Jacob Gube. Jacob is the founder and chief editor of Six Revisions, a website that publishes practical and useful articles for designers and web developers which reaches over a million visitors each month. Along with working on Six Revisions, Jacob has recently finished writing his first book entitled “MooTools 1.2 Beginners Guide Book.” Thanks to Jacob Gube and Pakt Publishing, AddToDesign will be giving away 3 signed copies of this awesome book.
