Technical Book Club: How to Participate

Our Technical Book Club is underway with our first book Code Complete, but it’s never too late to join!  Some people have written to ask how to get involved, so I thought I’d pull together a post.

  1. Buy, beg, or borrowCode Complete: A Practical Handbook of Software Construction 2nd edition
  2. Subscribe to the blog via RSS (or favorite this page):  https://feeds.feedburner.com/SpringboardFromMortarboardToOnboard using Outlook, Google Reader, or anywhere you follow feeds.  RSS provides the blog posts to you when they are posted.
  3. Read along.   I’m starting at a pace of one chapter a week, although the first chapters are shorter.
  4. Each Thursday I’ll post an entry summarizing some of the main points from the chapter and asking some questions.  Read over and let me know what you took out of the chapter.
  5. Post comments.   I love to hear what you’re thinking as you read through.  We all have different experiences with software and different points of view.
