Things like this[^] are not unusual on my library. But since the advent of the Internet, I did not buy books about syntax and specific tecnologies anymore - I can find anything I want on the web at anytime I need. Also, design and architecture discussions are easy to find online. Now, the books I buy are more like this[^]. Yes, even I am blogging now!

Curiously enough, I took a couple of pictures of a couple of my book shelves yesterday. http://blogs.wdevs.com/colinangusmackay/archive/2005/01/30/2124.aspx[^] I have many more books than that from when I was first starting to get to grips with .NET, so they don't get opened much these days. I also have some ancient books on C and C++ from way back.

It's all fiction to some extent, Paul. We just have different ways of suspending disbelief... ;)

Indeed. There is this great website where people write as fictional characters, more specifically as programmers. They argue politics and war and language choice as well as sexual orientation and hell, it can get heated. There's Stan, Wulff, Mike, someone naming themselves after a throat lozenge and a whole bunch of amazing characters. Thank god it's all fictional though... hey wait a minute, there's a guy named Shog9 from outer space on it too... :~ Let me out!

That's an impressive collection! It would have been interesting to have had an extra column with the price you payed per book. Also, you may consider making the columns sortable to get an idea of how things are grouped (by Publisher, Rating, etc). I only have about 10 books in my collection. I tend to only buy one book for a particular topic and if possible learn from online tutorials. Regards, Alvaro
