After I watched Krzysztof‘s lecture on API design, I decided to buy Framework Design Guidelines, which is a book he and Brad Abrams wrote.
I scanned through the first pages of the book and it indeed looks like a very interesting book full of material that I’ll in future use when designing and defining APIs and frameworks. I hope other people in the GNOME community, especially the ones working on infrastructure right now, will buy the same book and read it a few times.
I also bought myself The Transparent Society and started reading in my copy of Noam‘s Hegemony or Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance. I’m guessing these books will be influencing my blog content for the next few weeks. Maybe people who don’t like these subjects can filter me out? :-)
