About Our Sponsors
When hosts Big Nerd Ranch started out, we did one thing and we did it well: we taught programming languages. Now, more than a decade later, we’ve expanded to include consulting, software products and an ever-growing library of Big Nerd Ranch books. Learning is at the core of everything we do now and everything we'll do in the future.

Mandrill allows you to send, receive and track transactional email such as password resets, order confirmations and welcome messages, giving you control over and insight into this valuable data about your customers.
