I do love learning and keeping up to date with a broad array of skills, but I really do end up doing a lot of server administration work than one might think for being an application developer. Not complaining, just observing.

Does anyone use a non-amazon service for eBooks? I certainly don't mind buying from a local book store in dead tree format, but I do like eReaders too, but the shenanigans that amazon is pulling with eReaders, combined with their 80% market share is disturbing. #books #ereader
