Dan Appleman's latest PDF eBook "Exploring .NET Volume 1"

Ijust recieved this notification from Amazon.com.  Luckily I didn't delete it without looking.  I was very impressed with Dan's great book on Regular Expressions, and the Obfuscation book was interesting too, if not a bit beyond my skills at the current time.

Dear Amazon.com Customer,

As someone who has purchased books by Dan Appleman from us in the past, you might like to know that "Exploring .Net Volume 1" is available for immediate download. This title is an e-document, so you will need Acrobat Reader to read it. If you do not already have Acrobat Reader installed on your PC or Mac, download the program for free at http://www.amazon.com/acrobatreader.

Exploring .Net Volume 1
Our Price: $7.49

This e-document is a collection of seven shorter articles on a variety of .NET topics. Though most were previously published, all have been updated and in many cases expanded for this collection. Except for VB.NET specific topics, articles include both VB.NET and C# sample code. Contents include control arrays in .NET; an introduction to cryptography using .NET; calendars in .NET and how they can make it easy to localize your applications; Option Strict in VB.Net; custom attributes, and intercepting keystrokes in .NET.

** No, I don't work for Desaware or Dan Appleman, I'm just a fan of his previous works. **

I have been a fan of Dan's writing for years.

Another great publication to check-out is his PDF <a href-"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000632ZU/qid=1047879215/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/102-2827150-1796957?v=glance&s=books&n=507846">eBook on Regular Expressions.</a>

Having dabbled a bit with Regex in my Perl/CGI days, I appreciated his straight-forward approach to teaching the topic for .NET.

I am currently very underemployed, and am looking for VB. Net (education and) employment. Your books are a part of my seeking out an appropriate job. Since I just paid about $15 for "Regular Expressions" on Amazon, I'm wondering if I could get a couple of ebooks without charge ( I have to admit, I was expecting a little more literary satisfaction than 70-odd pages). I bought the VS. Net package, am chomping at the bit to sell some software (Handango, hopefully), and am, frankly, politically bent so as to sing the praises of anyone who helps me (if you've heard of *Angie's List* you'll know what I mean).

Just curious, and figured it never hurts to ask.

Thanks!

Janis
