Was considering researching a software development topic, but there are zillions of different topics, ideas, new methodologies, out there; so I was wondering if Code Project maintains a list of in-need, in-demand, under reported topics, or other ones that require re-examination? Would be grateful for any help here. Have a wonderful evening! Matthew. :)

Here are some titles to think about: For specific languages, et cetera: Essential C# by Mark Michaelis. Very well explained, at least C# 3.0 version was. Pro ASP.NET 4 in C# 2010 by Matthew MacDonald. Very dry, but easy to follow. Platform specific stuff: Sharepoint 2010 Development with Visual Studio by Eric Carter. Very well explained. Pre-requisite: You need to have Visual Studio and at least Sharepoint 2010 Foundation loaded on your development machine. Android Apps with Eclipse by Onur Cinar (or something like that). It's okay, not too bad to follow. However, particularly fun, because most, if not all of the tools are open-source. General computer science and theory: The Art of Computer Programming by Donald Knuth. Read some of this. Well explained. Some day would like to read all of the volumes. Concrete Mathematics by . The audience needs to have some background in continuous systems (e.g., calculus) and discrete mathematics (e.g., combinatorics, et cetera) Science philosophy: The Structure of Science Revolutions by Thomas Khun. Just learned about this one yesterday. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Computer science related novels: The Soul of a New Machine by Tracy Kidder. Dated (1981) but fun reading The Cuckoo's Egg by Clifford Stoll. Dated (1989) but fun reading.

I'm in. Ironing is a complete waste of one's time.
