Notes from the actual road

January 24, 2007 by Scott Rosenberg

In the past several days I’ve been talking nonstop about Dreaming in Code to radio hosts and bookstore crowds and a roomful of people at Microsoft Research in Redmond.

I am continually delighted by the interest people are showing in the book and its subject. Most wonderfully, I am finding that the radio folks are actually reading the book (or, you know, some of it, anyway!). I know how crazed their work schedules are, so that tells me that either (a) there are a lot of closet programming geeks out there in the radio world or (b) maybe I achieved some of my goal of taking this dauntingly arcane subject and making it approachable for people outside the field.

Tomorrow it’s Google for me, then I’ve got a long-planned family vacation over an extended weekend. But I’ve also got a backlog of stuff to post — so I’ll try to get to it all soon.
