Howdy-Molly—Molly has long been my favourite name-as a child i had a lovely aunt so named-she gave me 12.5 pence-a coin called ‘half a crown’-as i was begging for fireworks money in 1960s London-a common thing in those days-i would have a makeshift dummy propped up on the pavement and kids would say ”penny for the guy please?”-as in Guy Falwks who nearly blew up the houses of parliament-im doing the history bit as i dont know if your British-i keep thinking i want to join the community camped at st.pauls-not sure if i could take my dog–Molly !-Peace and Love-Des

Dear Ms. Molly,
I came across the link “A Selection of Supported Features in HTML5 (http://molly.com/html5/html5-0709.html)” on the page “23 Essential HTML 5 Resources ()” by Ryan Carson and it does not work. Please let me if there is another way to access this resource.
Thank You,

You changed your site ma’m! May I ask why? And you are using wordpress!
through angus forbes’ suggestion, I am contacting you to know if you’d like to contribute to / participate in a pechakucha-style event Thursday Aprill 11th in Tucson on the topic of mobility.
all this time can not find your email= less able… still alive…..struggling to keep the brain working despite surgery, strokes, and severe depression. time closes in on us it seems – the inhumanity and oppressive hate of some in this world at times overwhelms. as in the recent and past atrocities …. and I thought I had run out of tears. feverish sleep brings back memories I wished none of the children and next generations would not have to know.
Hi Molly I’ve had the good fortune to go through the Css title which U done with Mr. Andy Clarke. It was great fun & enlightening to watch that videos. I’m still a struggling Multimedia professional. I would like to be in touch with you.
Hi Molly,
I’m very new to coding and only started learning back at Christmas. So far I absolutely love it! Initiatives you’re involved in like the W3C CSS Working Group and Ladies Who Code are amazing, the developer community needs more people like you
I’m reaching out to you because the company I work for, Codio, is trying to improve the way coding is taught. We’re extremely concerned about the terrible way that coding is (not) being taught in our schools. We’re raising support and awareness for a campaign that aims to change the way the next generation of developers learn how to code.
We’re proposing a radical change to today’s rigid curricula – let the teaching and development community to take charge! We’re advocating to apply collaborative and open source principles to solve this problem. We have put together a complete (and free!) teaching/learning platform and strategy that consists of a web based IDE along with some major features for creating rich and interactive tutorials. Full details are available here.
If this is a campaign you believe in then we need your support. Any form of encouragement is appreciated, whether registering your support at https://codio.com/s/education/ or by spreading the word..
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the issue – any feedback, good or bad, is welcome!
Best regards,
Alan
