Over on the fediverse (or at least the German speaking part of it) there’s a bit of a challenge going on: post 20 books that shaped you, but only their covers without any comments. Now of course I won’t be able to skip the comments, so here they are. (Think of them as the DVD extra to the post.)

This book still informs how I think about websites – the techniques of the books are old by now, the spirit of thinking about websites isn’t. And all other ideas that came after it – progressive enhancement, responsive design etc. – carry that spirit with them.
