I didn’t read through all the books, but I enjoyed THE SEARCH by John Batelle. “Google is the Database of Intentions”

I know this book is a little “long in the tooth”, but still holds a lot of value in today’s world… and is definitely worth a read:

The Cathedral & the Bazaar: Musings on Linux and Open Source by an Accidental Revolutionary

Awesome book. Linux is becoming a bit a big player in the netbook market – about 10% of all netbooks currently use Linux, last time I checked.

Being Digital, by Nicholas Negroponte and Microserfs are great reads! definitively my favourites!

I believe you mean The Cuckoo’s Egg. You have the correct author though. Minor nitpick, but the title has to do with a once common cracker’s gambit. Outstanding read though!

Someone else mentioned Microserfs, which I keep meaning to read, but in a similar light, Renegades of the Empire, tells the story of how a group of programmers created DirectX in secret without approval of management at Microsoft, when Microsoft wanted to back OpenGL. Another great read.

for anyone/everyone & fiction:

The Baroque Cycle
~Neil Stephenson

is an absolutely masterful trilogy.

ofc: don’t take my word for it, read it for yourself.
