I've just written an article on a technique which can be used with column layouts which has been published on Search-This: Two Column Layout With A Twist.
I've been a subscriber to the site for a while (a lot of its contributors and readers also frequent Sitepoint) and a regular commenter, but this is my first published article. Search-This also publishes a range of articles dealing with the spectrum of web development topics, so it's worth checking out.
