Speaking of books
One of the Creative HQ residents, Chaos Dimention have released a beta version of their new book site –chaosprofessionals.co.nz. The site is an online book seller specialising in Technical and Business books. So whats the differentiator to Whitcoulls and Fishpond? All the books listed on the site have one price inclusive of shipping.
So I decided to the site to the Pepsi Challenge versus Whitcoulls and Fishpond and see what the prices are really like….
| Book | Whitcoulls | Fishpond | Chaos Professionals |
| The Long Tail By Chris Anderson |
$53.99 Shipping $2.85 Total: $56.84 |
$50.48 Shipping: $4.95 Total: $55.43 |

| Ruby Cookbook By Lucas Carlson and et. |
$121.99 Shipping: $2.85 $124.84 |

So you can see that you can save a bit of money by shopping at Chaos. The site is still in Beta, so be nice. Tomar and Chaos would love yourfeedback, so drop them a line if you have any suggestions.
