Pragmatic Bookshelf

Instead of listing their book one by one, I have decided to provide the link to all their books at once. I have bought most of the books they have published and all of theme are good to excellent. There are lot's of books on Ruby and Rails programming but also on other topics for the cutting edge programmer. Just go and take a look at what they have. Their website is really excellent. I mostly by their e-books in PDF format but you can also get them for your iPhone or Kindle if you like. If you ever loose your e-book they will just regenerate one for you. Great guys, great service, and great prices.

Safaribooks Online

One of the reasons I don't buy many technology books anymore is because of the great Safari bookshelf service. Basically, these guys have put at our disposal most of the "short lived" technology books used to cost us a small fortune. When I need access to a narrow topic and don't want to take hours to find the equivalent on the Web then I turn to Safari.
