There's no time to luxuriate in lessons. You need Quick + Dirty tips: bite-sized tool tutorials to beef up your skills, one morsel at a time.
Our first tip comes form Njoki Gitahi, senior communications designer at IDEO, who recently led InDesign novices in New York through an email-based intro to Adobe's powerhouse publishing tool.
