[CoLoCo] Off-Topic - O'Reilly Safari Books Online

[siblog]

Maybe I am way late on this one, but I just had a friend show me this
O'Reilly Online Bookstore site called Safari (http://safari.oreilly.com/).
The site has thousands of IT books that you can read online and, no, they
are not all O'Reilly books. It is quite an extensive library. Of course you
do have to pay a monthly rate of $42.99 (or $472.89 per year) for the
Unlimited Subscription but you also have a library in front of you that
would cost thousands and take years to build. With that subscription I think
they also let you download so many books or chapters a month but you can
read as many of them that you want. I also believe you can copy and paste
from them and print them if you really want to.

I did a simple search for "Ubuntu" and here are some of the books it
returned:

-Ubuntu Hacks
-Ubuntu Unleashed (Multiple Editions)
-The Official Ubuntu Book (Edition 1 & 2)
-Ubuntu Linux Bible
-Moving to Ubuntu Linux
-Ubuntu Linux For Dummies (Multiple Editions)
-Ubuntu For Non-Geeks (Multiple Editions)
And more....

The list of Python books is even more extensive

Unfortunately I just bought $75+ worth of IT books about a week ago and all
of them are on this site, oh well. Anyways, I remembered people talking
about Ubuntu books and Python books so I figured some might be interested.
