Book Reviews
![]() Last Monday appeared my net column on PowerPoint (written in Finnish, Kuinka PowerPoint tuhosi avaruussukkulan). This column is still generating feedback, more than any writing I have written before. (Well, perhaps a printed column on LaTeX vs. Microsoft Word generated more feedback.) Readers are either defending PowerPoint or telling their favorite story about problems with PowerPoint.

![]() Next week I'm taking a break from blogging (and work). Have to practice cross-country skiing, and teach the skill to the children also. So far this year I have managed to write four magazine articles and one net column, and one textbook is ready to be printed (third updated edition). And there has been all kinds of other activities as well. Not too shabby.
