HTML ?
I want to learn HTML to start learning web design. What is the best way to do so? I'm not the kind to sit with a book and go through it. I live near ATL.

Uhhh ... find someone with alot of spare time on their hands???
See this here thing called school typically makes you read a book, so if you cant sit down and read ... well your hosed.


Seriously though, your options are basicly all gone if your not willing to sit down and do some research on your own. Your especially going to need a book(/web) when you start working on your sites and you end up breaking code without knowing why its broken. Finding out how commands work and what flags they carry can be cumbersome to remember so a handy reference guide is going to be needed.
HTML is not really web design anymore. Your going to need to learn some sort of programming, typically Java, and learn how to do backend database programming for business use.

Check out your local Technical Colleges. Most of them have basic HTML and Java courses which are relativly inexpensive, usually offered online and you can probably get a certificate out of it. (at least with a class it's not just you and a book)

Not to sound like a complete ass but damn I've gotta agree with Nemo you've got the entire web at your hands to find info about HTML but you need to put the effort in to do it. There are tons of great sites out there with tutorials, start with this one and go from there.

Uh Du!
What I meant by " I 'm not one to just sit with a book adn learn it" is that some people can just buy a book and learn about things like that. I'm a more auditory, and kinetic learner.

Then I'd suggest getting your hands dirty, find a free html editor you like and start searching for tutorials and jump right in. Hell YouTube has some decent video tutorials if you don't like reading, which BTW is what you'll do all day if you hand code pages.

I heard of this program called dreamweaver that will do all the coding for you.

programs
I have seen dreamweaver. I just wanted to know where to start.
There is a business development center at Emory that teaches classes on consecutive Saturdays in HTML beginning and intermediate dreamweaver, cascading style sheets, and java. I think I'll take some of those.
