CD Baby and George

I just read a very favorable review of Advanced PHP Programming by George Schlossnagle.

This isn't unusual, since everyone loves George's book (myself included, although I haven't had a chance to read it thoroughly enough to review it yet), but I thought it was cool that the review was from Derek Sivers, the guy behind CD Baby. Very cool.

Google Blog

As pointed out by Adam, Google now has its own blog. Interesting.

Check out the Atom feed.
