Other Links

For software book industry watchers, Tim O'Reilly posted his most recent "State of the Computer Book Market" analyses--part one and part two.

Last but not least, a blogger (I can't find his/her name) offers a list of reviews for software books that do not exist. Some interesting entries.

Thanks for reading,
Dan

P.S.
Lots of links up there from Pat Eyler of the On Ruby blog--way to go Pate!
