What I've Been Reading...

In keeping with my pattern of alternating between fiction and non-fiction, my next reading project is the non-fiction work Security Data Visualization: Graphical Techniques for Network Analysis. Thus far it's fairly interesting and, despite how heavy it is, seems to be a rather short, brief read.

In addition to traditional books, I also follow a number of blogs. I share a number of items that I find most interesting, a feed to which you can subscribe here. Here's a sample of some entries I've read in the last few days:
