Steampunk Books?
Somebody with too much time on their hands went through the effort of creating this image. I too, having too much time on my hands, shall analyze said image:
- The Book of Faces– Facebook
- XML Engines – Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a set of rules for encoding documents in machine-readable form, used in modern programming and leveraged heavily in web development.
- Machine Code – What people used to call the code of a program after it was compiled.
- Piston ++ – C++ is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. C# (pronounced “sea sharp”) is better.
- The Web that Encompassed the Earth – World Wide Web, or WWW, which is the early name for the Internet. Sounds like a 1950’s horror movie.
- The Internet – Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Internet is. They must be shown.
- Steam for Dummies – I Googled “Steampunk for Dummies” and Omega7Red was listed #1. What??
- B3TA Manuel – Probably a reference to the B3TA newsletter, which does have some funny stuff.
- Victorian Twitterings – Twitter
