"Expert C Programming"

I have been reading Peter van der Linden's excellent book "Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets" - it is thoroughly
enjoyable and is the first book on C after "The C Programming Language", Second Edition, by Kernighan
and Ritchie that I really liked. Otherwise one only gets to
see such horrendous titles as "Let Us C" (which is sadly a textbook for C in a lot of Indian colleges) and
"Teach Yourself C in 24 hours".

van der Linden has a cool and humourous style of
writing and obviously knows
what he is talking about. Very highly recommended to
anyone who likes programming in C.

My LexarMedia JumpDrive Secure USB 256MB Drive arrived yesterday after I won it in an eBay auction - what a cool and really nifty
thing! Unfortunately, I had to literally hack out a portion
of the drive so that it could fit into the weirdly designed
USB port of my office machine, but it works perfectly well
otherwise.

I now have "deferred broadband". :-)
