Best Software Writing I

Neil Kandalgaonkar (via John Gruber):

Joel Spolsky has compiled a book of essays on software, which he calls The Best Software Writing I. He released the chapter listing in June 2005, and I noticed that a lot of them were blog posts that I’d read before. I wondered how much of the book was taken from online content. A few minutes of hacking later, and a programmed equivalent of Google’s “I’m Feeling Lucky” had found every single chapter.
