Word about my sponsor...
I work for a book store, Barns and Noble, specifically. And, yes, given the option, I buck internet tradition and link to them rather than Amazon. The reason is simple: I link to the company which pays my salary...
No, Barns and Noble does not pay me for any of the materials which are purchased off a link from my site, they most likely have not connected my site to their employee. Hell, all things considered I most likely don't want my corporate office to take notice of me. For that matter, I should state that nothing I write is in any way connected to my employer. I speak only for me...
And yet I have some very nice things to say about them. I just took a vacation. Paid. My company chooses to pay me (a part timer who works only about 25 30 hours a week) for vacation time, as well as provide me with a generous insurance package...
If this sounds like a social good, all things being equal, stop by a Barns and Noble to buy books. But don't tell 'em I sent you...
