Packt Author Award 2009
With a shiny new "Web 2.0" logo, Packt announced their Packt Author Award 2009. This is the first year they are giving this award away, and as luck would have it, my book - Learning ExtJS - is eligible for it. Packt will take the top five ranking books (based on votes) and send them to a review panel to be poked and prodded. The review panel will then pick what they determine to be the best book based on the "quality of their work, and their contribution to the tech community".
Were only a few days into voting, and I heard (from an unnamed source) that im currently in the top position. What I need is for everyone who found my book useful - as a monitor riser or otherwise - to go and place your vote!
Place your vote for Packt Author of 2009 here
(select "Learning Ext JS" from the list of books and fill out the survey)

Hello,
I have read your book after I have been using Ext JS for quite some time now, but I still learned some new things I didn’t know.
I think it’s a good book (despite a few mistakes in the code) and I gave you my vote.
Regards,
Tomaž
Thanks man, I’m glad you enjoyed it. It was fun to write it.
I liked it, but I think I will love the next revision of the book.
Keep up the good work !
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
I am trying to get a second revision out to correct typos and some other things I want to change, but I have to convince the publisher first. There are definitely some dumb typos that I would like to fix.
