 Do you buy web books off of Amazon?
I'm doing a little survey to see how many people actually buy web related books off of vendors such as Amazon.com? Do you go to the site already knowing what you are going to buy? Do you just browse until you see something you like?
Now, if you don't buy anything off of Amazon that is related to the web, do you know of any friends that do? Thank you for helping me out on this one, its greatly appreciated.

Nope I don't buy books, I can't learn that way.
I have received one book from Amazon though (due to a mistake). I bought a game off Amazon and the box arrived on Sep 8th, 2001. I opened it up to find a book about Showbiz. It turns out the book was actually supposed to goto a law firm in World Trade Center tower #2. Amazon was going to have me send it back in but a few days passed and the towers collapsed, then they told me just to keep it and they'd send me another copy of the game I was supposed to receive.
