Service Oriented Architectures and Charity
I was thinking about a previous blog entry and believe I came up with a way that I can help others become more charitable...
I am of the believe that us authors who write books don't do enough to encourage others to give to charity and should put our money where our mouth is.

Likewise, if anyone buys Enterprise Service Oriented Architectures sends me the shipping receipt before April 15th, I will contribute $5 (NOTE: My royalty on this book is only about $1 so don't get it twisted) to Modest Needs, a charity that is helping out victims of Hurricane Katrina...
