TeleportSandwich Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Picked up Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson for free the other day since the Barnes & Nobles that I work at was sending a copy back to the publishers to get recycled and they usually let us get first dibs on those kinds of books (cover was ripped off though) Today I bought Weaving the Web by Tim Berners-Lee. Internet: serious fucking business :awesome: Link to comment
Ceraziefish Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Today I bought Understanding Comics and Safe Area Gorazde. I'd already read the second and finished the first within two hours of getting it... But they were on sale. Safe Area Gorazde is off the fucking handle... I'm a huge Joe Sacco fanboy. Link to comment
