Books I've Read This Week


Responsive Web Design by Ethan Marcotte is a great book and you can have it for only $9 in an eBook format which is a steal of a deal. I was just in Denver and Boulder and ran into a bunch of people who were asking how to support multiple screen sizes in PhoneGap for things like phones and tablets. Well the techniques you learn in this book are really the way you should be doing it. Hint: use CSS media queries.

Cognitive Surplus by Clay Shirky asks the question what are we going to do with all of the free time we have? You are probably thinking I don't have any free time but compared to your forefathers who got up and worked all day in the fields you really do. We blog, if that isn't a cognitive surplus I don't know what is. The challenge is using collaborative tools to find other people who share the same interests as you to create something amazing.

B.P.R.D. Volume 5: The Black Flame the War on Frogs is heating up and what happened to Roger? Ah man, I love Roger.


See you next Friday.
