    Hi All,

    Has anyone had access to Safari Books and what are your thoughts?
    Had an email from work this morning advising that we have a Subscription.

    Just waiting for my logon details to come through!

    Cheers

    Its decent, they also offer CBT videos now, mostly LiveLessons, InfiniteSkills, Packt Publishing but also OReilly media.

    I’ve used a trial which was good and I was considering signing up.. however, I find reading e-books a nightmare I find it hard to read books from a bright screen. What device will you use it on? Its great your employers spend money on your development.. yet to find employment like this.

    Just read online it cant be used on an Amazon paperwhite :(

    Nothing like the feel of a physical book in your hands.

    You know I get as many books as I can on my kindle paperwhite and I love it, i think the only issue i have is that at time you miss the aspect of a physical book where you can quickly flick through to a page you have read etc.

    @Juelz have you tried a blue light filter app on your PC, they will help you out
