Money well spent

An interesting thing happens when you get married and have kids, you start evaluating your purchases more. While I’m still trying to convince my wife that “The View” would be so much better on a High-Def Plasma TV, I have made some purchases I have no regrets on. Top on my list is my monthly subscription to Safari Books Online. Safari is an invaluable resource. I can read any number of tech books whenever I want, and with the amount of topics I’m interested in purchasing every book from the store would seriously cut into my Plasma TV fund. When I’m done with a book online I just remove it from my shelf and grab another one. I would highly suggest Safari Books Online if you do any technology reading.
