My Reading List
The other day it occurred to me that I haven’t been reading very much this year. I was geeking out about ActionScript and other Web Development this past weekend after an alumni brush up course in which we exchanged titles we read, things that have influenced us, and titles that are on our respective “to read” lists.
It was then I realized most of my recently read items were from the tail end of last year. One of the alums asked me to send him a list in which I went really overboard, but it got me thinking about all of the good material in these books and that if I was a budding Web Designer or Developer what titles would help me take my game to the next level.
So here was my list off the top of my head in no particular order. This is a compilation of things I’ve read, I am reading, things I know I should have read, and things I can’t wait to read.
Feel free to add to the list
