Some of my favorite books on 22books.com
Tonight I was...well....I actually don't remember what I was doing, but somehow I ended up on 22books.com.  For those of you unfamiliar with 22books.com here's a little snippet from the homepage:
22books is dedicated to the creating, sharing, and viewing of book lists. Start out by browsing some of the featured lists to the left and then open a free account and start creating lists of your own.

I created a couple books lists on 22books that contain many of my favorite books on software development.  The lists have a lot of overlap but I broke them up as follows:


All time Favorite Software books

Agile Books

.NET Books

Architecture / Design

Ruby and Rails
I think 22books.com has the potential to become a really great place to share books lists.  I really enjoy reading and have relied on many of the books in the above lists to help me progress as a software developer.  I'll probably spend a little more time refining the above lists and adding books that I didn't think of during my first pass.

Did you read Steve McConnell - Code Complete? Or you just didn't like it? I didn't expect not seeing it in the list =) I think it's a must read and one of the best books for software developers, but of course is just imho.

Btw, your old posts on DDD was AWESOME. It's so sad you stopped writing on it. You explained everything very-very good and you touched real problems.

Pavel,

If you can believe it I haven't ever read Code Complete. I've gone to read it a number of times but it's never happened for one reason or another. Thanks for the props regarding my posts on DDD. Maybe I should start writing some more on the topic since it's been a while and there's probably some thoughts worth sharing.

Cheers,
Steve

Steve,
I hope you really write some more, maybe not concretely on DDD, but on design/architecture of enterprise applications. I also think that if you wrote a book on this, it would be a great book, because I think you have ability to write good articles and easily explain interesting problems.

Pavel,

Thanks for the kind words! I don't think I'll be writing any books in the near future but hopefully I'll get back to writing a little more here.

Cheers,
Steve
