PAW most recently came to mind after reading <em>Founders at Work</em> last year--lots of similarities, though not as many cool artifacts. And then running across Leonard Richardson's summary made me pull PAW of the shelf again and remember the trying to justify, as a poor college student, the $14.95 for such a cool book. Glad I bought it (and it still has the original B. Dalton $14.95 price sticker on it.) Looking forward to checking out the site--had I known you already had a post up there on the new blog, I would have submitted that in the original slashdot story...

I'd love to hear your feedback.
