Bookshelves for the Programmer at Heart

Bookshelves for the Programmer at Heart

Posted in:

So I was doing my daily surfing yesterday and came across a blog article about bookshelves. Ordinarily I don't care about bookshelves - or any kind of furniture for that matter, but the first image in the post caught my eye.

For the non-programmers out there, it's called the Equation Bookshelf. We know what it actually is though - a shrine for your O'Reilly books.

I made up a better picture that represents the true purpose of this bookshelf. I know you can't read the titles, but if you were a real programmer you'd recognize the books just by the colors.

The article I saw was actually a link to a link to a link which eventually ended up at the designer's blog. They have a brochure with a few more images that you should definitely check out.

I don't actually know if you can buy this thing, but if you can, someone point me in the direction of the store.

I don't know where you can buy one... But I can probably build you one out of outdated documentation from the legacy systems I'm currently maintaining. ;)
