A Software Craftsman's 200$ Bookshelf Upgrade!

Thu, 28 May 2009 10:54:16 GMT

About three weeks ago, I asked my readers and some people in the Norwegian developer community about what books they have in their bookshelf.

Martin aka UncleBob has been a programmer for 40 years, written tons of articles and some really good books. He has worked very hard to promote professionalism and craftsmanship to software developers. In this keynote you'll see him talk about that. Watch and learn!

And by answering this question in form of a blog post, I'll be able to redirect future questioners here.
