From time to time, Aarron also writes articles about web development for online publications including SitePoint.com and DMXZone.com.

When he's not teaching or writing, Aarron runs an independent consultancy in Athens, GA, that plans, designs, and builds user- centered web sites and content management systems for clients in the Southeast.
