Dear deepsand, Thanks for inquiring about the Design and Usability newsletter. The final edition of that newsletter was sent to subscribers on Jan. 5, 2005. We included an editor's notice in the last delivery of the newsletter stating that anyone who was subscribed to that newsletter will now receive the Software/Web Development NetNote.
You are correct in noting that the Software/Web Development NetNote hasn't contained any design content; it focuses more on XML, Java, C++, SQL Server, Web services, etc.
Would you like to see this NetNote start to incorporate more CSS and design-related content?
I'm so used to notices at the top being promos, & member/subscription related items at the bottom, which is where I looked for it just now, that I never noticed it on 1st reading; I finally found it.
Yes, I found the content of the now defunct newsletter quite useful, particularly in quiding clients toward a solution that serves their best interests; i.e., the form vs. function issue.
Deepsand, Thanks for letting us know that you found the information that newsletter provided useful. We'll keep this in mind when we're creating new content.
Not sure if its what you want but there is an excellent guide at a forum I am member of from way back - still am. its been created in PDF format by a designer who knew what he was talking about. like I say it may not be what you need! http://archives.swish-tutorials.com/dl/dp/designbasx.pdf

Nice beginning, particularly for those with no marketing experience; but,
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
Does anyone know what happened to ..
It seems to have unceremoneously replaced by the "Software/Web Development Netnote Newsletter," from TechRepublic.com.
The content of the latter seems to include none of that of the former.
