What now? I have some ideas for you.

Go explore CodePen!

As a front end designer and developer, you should have an account on CodePen so you can save your snippets, present your ideas, and engage with the rest other front end folk. I'd encourage you to go PRO as well, to unlock the full power of CodePen.

Go PRO on CodePen

Get the newsletter!

You should sign up for the CSS-Tricks newsletter. It's a clean copy of all the blog posts each week, combined together, right to your inbox. If email isn't your thing, there is an RSS feed, iTunes, and lots of other ways to subscribe.

Let's be friends!

I'm active on CodePen, Twitter, Dribbble, and GitHub. CSS-Tricks is on Twitter and Facebook, which are mostly just a way to follow new content. There is a YouTube channel for the screencasts as well.
