Errr....... thanks... :rolleyes:

Anyone has other opinions?

Well for programming I like the books Wrox publishes. Their PHP4 and Perl books have helped me out a lot so far. Simple to read, great examples, and for some reason they talk english instead of super-tech babble. :D If you need a little more beginning view with the basics or stuff check out the Visual Quickstart Guide series published by Peachpit Press.

I also have O'reilly's "Unix in a Nutshell" which has helped me out a couple of times.

Obviously, I made a mistake.

I sent you, Turtle, a pm and I sent an email to the Moderators.

Hang tight, I'm sure they'll move it.

Yea, I heard a lot of good things about Wrox books. Only that their yellowpages-size books a problem to my usual reading habit from cover to cover. :(

OK, my personal top 5 pick:
1. learning perl - oreilly
2. cgi programming 101
3. php and mysql web development (this is the only yellowpages I'd read) :D
4. running linux (tonnes of info inside)
5. the now habit (we need to be motivated, don't we?)

The option 5 will soon be replaced by "Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!". Many frens recommending this.

Well, the IRS and your state Dept. of Revenue do not give a hoot about your server or command line prowess. Better make sure you have your i's dotted and your t's crossed.

Boys, get past the title... ya know, lots of women are intimidated by financials/paperwork, so the title attempts to get them to work through that trepidation. I own the book, it's excellent. Forms, lists, permits, the works.

"Minding Her Own Business : The Self-Employed Woman's Guide to Taxes and Recordkeeping" by Jan Zobel, pub. 2000, 198 pgs.
