I used to have a 1.5 hour commute one way. You can get a lot done in that
time. Now I don't need to commute all the time and it has gotten harder to
get the reading done. That will change once school starts and my daughter
starts doing lots of marching band stuff. :)

This might be not suitable for everyone, but I find the combination of
(public transport + netbook + tethering) extremely helpful. OTOH I am
currently accepting a commute of 1h+ as opposed to ~30min direct drive,
I am not sure I'll keep that up.
At the moment pretty much 90%+ of my private ema

Maning doesn't have everything I want to read but it might be a good start.
I have a subscription to Commonsware.
I guess it would be nice if some of the Apress and O'Reilly books were
available as well. I don't need the whole book on the phone. Just the
chapter I want to read. :)

Don't forget convertors to reduce the size for easy mobile-reading...
Compression of files may help give you more pdfs to read.
Try other formats too. Some may reduce pdf file size on conversion...

You should be able to get the various books in ebook format.
E.g. all the commonsware books are available in PDF .. and you can read
them on your android phone just fine.

Most of the Manning books are available in both PDF formats. Some of them
are available in ePub format as well. There are PDF readers for both iPod
Touch/iPhone and Android that should let you read your books. I'm not sure
how readable they'll be.

I agree with Robert. I am married with three little boys under 5 and I

I listen to the JavaPosse.
Seriously.
I also listen to other pod casts when exercising or driving to/from work. I
take books with me to my kids activities. When they are doing something, my
attention is there. Before the concert or ceremony, I'll read a bit and try
to catch up on something.

Hi guys,
this is targeted at those slightly older developers out there who have
been coding for a while now and consider themselves rather good at
what they do.
How do you make time to keep up to date? I mean, I have a full time
