Started Learning Some CCS and Stumbling Through Actionscript

I got fed up searching the net for online tutorials and bought some books.
The Animators Survival Kit is my new favourite book, it's basically Richard Willams (who created Roger Rabbit) sketch book and looks at the animation process for a load of stuff that could make some sick flash animations and games.
Elizabeth Castros XHTML and CSS book is quality, got my going with CSS straight away.
ActionScript 3.0 Bible is a bit over my head at the moment so I'm sticking with online tutorials for now.
I'll probably bang some off my SWF files I've made after watching tutorials on here in the next few days. The actionscript works perfect but they are pretty dull so far but within the next week or so I should know enough to include all the techniques in some proper basic flash games and some less basic navigation menus.

I've been slack with my journal so far this term so I'm going to bang everything on here within the next few days.
got my interactive narrative up thanks to swfup.com (well easy to use btw). I think it turned out ok considering how clueless I was to start. My audio runs until it's finished even if the viewer has gone on to the next scene. Also I'd rather not hear my own voice every time I view my blog so I need to make a start/play action at the beginning.
