Why do I get the feeling they're not going to close the stores if they sell all the crap stock?

- Not much IT stuff left but loads of books on The Mac (they don't count as IT...).

I saw that mac stuff - it's all pretty old, like books on Panther and Tiger, nothing up to date. I expect they will get pulped...

Just got back - took an early lunch . Not sure about Science and Maths - Not much IT stuff left but loads of books on The Mac (they don't count as IT...). Some fiction, quite a few travel books, biographies, coffee table books etc. Most of the best stuff gone though.

Any science and maths book?

They did have a (mostly untouched) maths/physics section when I was there on Tuesday. No idea if there's anything left now though.

TBH, didn't notice as I wasn't after that sort of thing.

They tend not to be popular though, so you might be lucky!

Good point - may toodle along there after work

Depends what you want.

I went last night, most of the lonely planets & rough guides have gone.
Still loads of novels.
Still quite a bit of computing stuff (seemingly obscure stuff mostly).

I'm thinking of popping up to Borders lunchtime - do you reckon it's still worth it?

You becoming an IA then?

Moving into that area... IA (or information design), Usability and UI design under the umbrella of user experience. Mostly application user interfaces (and the end-to-end experience), but a bit of web. Getting plenty of interest in this area at the moment - with some attractive rates.

All the posh places in the world.

Oxford Street, Llantrisant, London Colney, Dublin and Swindon.

I used to live in London Colney a few years back, assuming it's the one near St Albans.

Pub on the village green did a good pint and a cracking steak sandwich. The Green Dragon I think it was.

Yep I did - sos for not getting back... My role has shifted emphasis and now I'm after HCI, usability and interaction design materials.

Did you get my email RH a while ago, about the project management ebooks?
