I was introduced to the glory that is the world of Mr. Bunny many years ago. Mr. Bunny’s Guide to ActiveX is probably the best book on ActiveX programming ever written.
If you haven’t figured it out by now, it’s a humor book, but it’s the sort of madcap insane geek humor that has enough truth in it to make you laugh more.
My favorite is the first exercise from the first chapter: Connect the dots. (Warning: It’s harder than it looks!)
Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
