Every day, another networking website is born. StumbleUpon is a link sharing site that lets you network as much or as little as you want. You install a toolbar (Firefox and IE only) and rate sites that you like -- or loathe. The more sites you rate, the higher the odds of getting something interesting when you click the "Stumble!" button to find a site you may not have known about. You can look for sites your friends liked or narrow your search down by topic or media. Now all they need to add is an "Ehh..." button -- Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down just isn't enough.

The Flash Anthology: Cool Effects and Practical ActionScript
by Steve Grosvenor
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: Basically a bunch of examples you can find on the internet for free. It doesn't systematically teaches you the programming fundamentals.
It's ok for a few quick solutions, but not the book you need to really learn actionscript.
