“Four interns are brought into Manhattan and given 12 weeks to design, develop, debug and ship a program that will change the way computer geeks around the world fix their friends’ computers. Boondoggle Films presents a journey through the world of software development from the perspective of a unique upstart, four quirky interns, and the world of The Geek.”
Check out the trailer… it looks really good. I ordered my copy last week.

If only I had a green card I would apply for this position in a second. To learn under Joel Spolsky would be a honor.
The second best option would be to follow what he is doing with his program online.

Joel Spolsky released his tentative list of required reading for those that are going to be accepted into his Software Management Training Program. The list looks really good. (I have personally read 6 of them.)
Is he missing any books that you think any aspiring Software Management professional should read?

I have a big problem CS and SOEN programs in university becoming easier and more like trade schools. A big part of me would love to rewind my academic career by ten years so that I could go to a “more difficult” university that would of pushed me more mentally.
