	Over the years, we have all pursued a number of titles that are of interest for varying reasons. This is a poor attempt to try and list a few of our favorites out to share with others.

Over the years, we have all pursued a number of titles that are of interest for varying reasons. This is a poor attempt to try and list a few of our favorites out to share with others. We can also use this as a reference for books with which we should stock the Noisebridge shelf.

In the interest of chronologic significance, we should not include books of a limited technical nature (for example, PHP5 for Dummies), but instead those which grant a broader outlook on life.

The current format is book title, author, brief description, and your name. If multiple people like a book, you can add your names into the "name" field. We should probably also have some way to denote whether it is on the shelf at Noisebridge. This will be in a nice table shortly. Also, there is no real categorization yet, I am including technical as well as nontechnical.
