Confessions of a Media Manipulator - Trust Me - I'm Lying
Confessions of a Media Manipulator - Trust Me - I'm Lying

Review:As someone who wasn't very familiar with the nuances of the blogging world, or the incentive structure, I'd say that this was an eye opener. If you're an average content consumer, this book will change how you feel about what you read on the internet. You might become a bit cynical about it all. If you're someone trying to get your content "up there," it will show you some strategy to accomplish that. If you're a seasoned blogger, you might know much of what Ryan talks writes about. Nonetheless,... Read more

In the Beginning...was the Command Line

Review:This book was well writen and well explained, and I loved Stephenson's analogies, but his lust for unix based operating systems and his lack of knowledge of others (mainly BeOS) disapointed me. The book would have been more properly titled as "Unix is god, the rest, well they are there." because that was his overall outlook of operating systems from my perspective.
Finally, I would recomend this book to anyone whole is a user of multiple OSes and enjoys the topic of OSes. [Recomended] Read more

Unflinchingly honest tales of the search for life - and fulfillment beyond the Starship Enterprise

Review:Wheaton's book balances nicely the needs of an eager readership who already know his website with an introduction that allows for people like me who hardly remember him at all. The book presents a roughly chronological series of essays about trying to find work as an actor trying to recover from his image as a Star Trek actor.

A few thoughts:

- Wheaton's strength is his honesty. He does a great job explaining what makes him happy and sad, of really documenting the difficulties ... Read more
