Hiring
I mentioned this a London.pm last week but Reading Room are hiring. Perl, database, Linux/Unix, designers, HTML slaves, producers, project managers. If you are "polishing up your portfolio site" right now and you want to work somewhere manic, challenging and where you get to do lots of neat stuff under your own steam, mail me a CV. Also, if you know anyone good who got laid (off) recently, let me know.

It took me three bookshops on Charing Cross Road to get a perl library together for the guys I'm working with, but I managed it without having to go into Foyle's. Yeah! The bonus was a second edition of Jon Bentley's "Programming Pearls". A classic.
