Re: What are you reading?

It`s a few years since i`ve had the chance to read books....not since the latter of my kids came along anyway

I was once an avid reader but the only books i`ve really been reading for the last few years have been bedtime stories & count with mum etc(pops then)
Although my kids range 2 - 14 it was`nt until about 5 years ago i kinda stopped reading myself.Just never found the time for books once the family started getting bigger & the hours got longer(average for our families mind you)

Fortunately the last 17 months with computers has gave me cause to be reading again though as i`ve spent lots(and lots and lots the wife would tell you) of that time reading online forums,manuals,guides,howtos,wikis & even the odd man pages...sad i know
I spend a lot of my pc time on Ubuntuforums.org not just learning everything & anything i can cram in but also helping others out with the things i`ve learnt about myself,and of course helping dispell some of the pre-conceived ideas/beliefs & mis-information many arrive there with

My heads actually full of tooooo much information now i think and it probably all needs defragmented a bit so i can at least make sense of some of it.

I`ve sometimes had to stop myself taking a laptop to work in the mornings as i really cant start doing that nonsense.Skiving off up on some roof somewhere,lying in the sun,bitching on CF about the terrible speeds i`m getting on someone elses wireless connection
