  Philip Greenspun, author of "Philip and Alex's Guide to Web
  Publishing," will be giving two talks on the Penn campus, April 8th
  and 9th, from 10-5 each day.  A short bio and description for each
  talk is below, as well as directions to where each talk will be
  held.

  Dr. Greenspun developed MIT's course "Software Engineering of
  Innovative Web Services," which is also being taught at Caltech and
  Stanford. He is also the CEO of Ars Digita, a company that builds
  open-source enterprise software and uses it to support their
  business as a mass-customized application service provider (ASP).

  Starting with his first community based website
  <http://photo.net>, a forum for photographers that gets more than
  a million hits a day, Dr. Greenspun has developed more that 200
  database-backend Web sites.  He is also the author of "SQL for
  Web Nerds" and "Philip and Alex's Guide to Web Publishing".
