CTRL ALT Delete Book Reviews And Media

In trying to figure out a place to keep reviews and media organized for my second business book, CTRL ALT Delete, I settled on this page.

If you’re interested in reviews, media and that sort of stuff about the business book, here it is (and it will be updated on a regular basis). But, this is more for archival purposes than self-promotion. Also, please note that the book only comes out on May 21st, 2013, but some reviews of the galley copies are starting to make their way online. If you would like to pre-order the book, please visit this link: CTRL ALT Delete – buy the book.
