Project Background
The LD Resources web site has been providing information for people with learning disabilities and people who work with people with learning disabilities since 1995. It started as a place for Richard Wanderman (me) to share handouts with people in digital form and since then has grown to include hundreds of articles by me and dozens of other authors on all aspects of learning disabilities. The site now contains lists of tools, schools, organizations and professionals and other resources for the LD community as well as new articles and commentaries.

This new version of LD Resources is technically a weblog (blog) and as such provides RSS feeds, commenting, and all of the things you expect from a weblog. Weblog tools make collecting, publishing, and browsing through information easier for both us and hopefully for you.

About the Developers
LD Resources does not live in a glass tower. It has never had an “office” or a “team.” It is a virtual project, worked on for years by one person (me), now it has doubled in size to two.

This site was designed and most of it’’s information collected and edited by me, Richard Wanderman, a well known educational consultant, presenter, and successful LD adult who lives in Warren, Connecticut. The back end of this site was designed and is run by David Clark, a well known web accessibility consultant and successful adult with cerebral palsy who lives in Boston, Massachusetts. David hosts this site and others on his server.

Technical Info About the Current Site
The LD Resources web site is powered by WordPress, an open source content management and weblogging tool which David has customized with many of his own plugins and was built and is maintained on Macintosh computers with BBEdit software. Transmit was used for all FTP work and MarsEdit and Ecto for the more recent publishing of articles and other posts.

This is a dynamic site: all pages are built on the fly from data stored in a MySQL database by numerous WordPress scripts written in PHP. All page layout is done with CSS which means that if you are not using a modern, standards-supporting web browser the site will not format correctly (early versions of Internet Explorer have problems). We urge you to a modern browser which will make your web browsing experience much more pleasant. We recommend any of these, all of which are great products: FireFox (Windows or Mac), Safari (Mac), Mozilla (Windows or Mac), Opera (Windows or Mac).
