My Book Stack

I have fallen in love with your theme for this website.

Design Patterns is a great book. Head First series does a great job at lightening up the complex.

Sketching User Experiences looks like a good one. I be checkin that one out :)

Great site!

So, I’m going to just come out and say the obvious: let’s build a robot!

All non-fiction?

Any comments on “Design Management”? Was looking at the book and the amazon rating is quite sad…

I have the Head First Pattern book, but only made it through the first chapter, which is odd because I was liking it… I need to revisit it.

is it Lokesh, or Mr. Dhakar?
could you mail a scan of a ny times puzzle? i’m a big fan of the cross words, and it would be cool to see the difference - we could trade some but i doubt that you’d have much fun with one in swedish ;-P

Thanks. I have been wondering about The Devil in the White City, so I just ordered it after I saw your comment.

I am amazed that some people can “read” audio books. I tried it a couple of times and it only worked for non-fiction for me. Unfortunately I simply cannot enjoy fiction by listening to it. The reason is the way I read: non-linear. My pace varies from one sequence to another, and I often stop for a while and think, go back to an earlier section and re-read, or even fast-forward by glancing through a few paragraphs. For me, reading a novel is an experience that is impossible to create by the linear pacing of an audio track.

A) Brilliant site! Will need to by bookmarking this!

B) oh golly, those books do look interesting. I should start reading more oftne!

How about “Head First Design Patterns”?
I want to buy it
please give me some advice,3q!

Lokesh - Great choice on the Homicid book. It’s awesome. You’ve seen the show I imagine. But have you seen The Wire, Simon’s new show? It’s ridiculously excellent.

Great new theme for the site, BTW.

Thanks!

If you haven’t already, you should DEFINITELY read:

Heehee, just found this place by accident. cool book list. Design patterns looks really useful. I’m a bit worried about the fact that there’s only one comment regarding the book ‘homicide’…

By the way, I can see your plan. A robot controlled by the user to commit sketchily covered up homicide.

:D

Oh my god, your theme really kicks ass! Thumbs up!

great book “homicide”, I also bought it from amazon.com ;)

I was unaware of this Homicide book. I will have to pick it up. I am a complete nerd for The Wire.

It may just be me, but I can’t get into the Design Patterns book. That style of book is designed to make things a little more accessible, with the pictures and diagrams. For me, however, these things seem to get more in the way of my reading… leaving me with a choppy sensation. I’ve got the book, but don’t look at it much.

The GoF book, it’s a little cold, and kinda hard to get into. I’ve looked at Pro Javascript Design Patterns, tho, and I think that’s really well written, especially since javascript doesn’t intuitively support a lot of Patterns out of the box.

Hey Lokesh,

The new theme is awsome.Simple yet very effective.
I want your idear in my creations too.
I hope you will suerly do me favor.

Keep up the good work bro :-)

I found this page from your superb Lightbox site. Excellent work!

Hi Lokesh,

Have you given up with this site or is it just that you haven’t found the time to post?

You shouldn’t dump this site; the design is just neat.

The Lightbox has benefited my portfolio so much; really good work!

Humm, design patterns -) I will probably buy me a book like this one very soon.
