My tools
2. My books.
The books I have in the picture are not my only ones. I have 22 books and counting on Oracle Technology (Database, PL/SQL, and Forms) and a set of 4 books for 9i certification. So not even half of my books made to the picture above. Most of them I own for about an year now and never touched. That's very sad and disappointed. But hey, now is not the time to be sorry. I am taking action on it. I will start with very basic chicken soup kind of book and then move on to more in depth concepts of the technology. The ones that made the picture are the ones I will read in the following order:
In order to achieve my goals, I will use a couple of tools to me help me out. Here they are:

3. AskTom
Great forum for questions and answer by someone no other that Mr. Tom Kyte.
4. OTN
If there's one thing that simply rocks about Oracle is the network of support, forums, documentation, how-to's and etc that the company has put together.
5. "Links I am addicted to" section in my blog.
Just a very small list of blogs I read about people with experience talking about technology.
6. Steven Feuerstein
Great programmer, great citizen, great activist. You can find him here, here, here.
7. The Tom Kyte blog
Tom Kyte is just out of this word. I read his blog religiously.
8. Google
Great little search engine you might have heard about.
9. Online communities and support.
Orafaq, my oracle related communities at orkut , Oracle-l.
10. And a bunch of other sources.
There are blogs I didn't mention such as The Dizwell, Mark Rittman and others that I didn't mention here.
11. Your replies.
Of course my visitor's replies (if I have any).
My only fear is that I get lost in middle of the road. I will have to do a lot of reading, but it isn't just reading is understanding and putting into practice and building up good ethics and practices.
Hopefully, I will be successful with my little project. If not, at least I read a lot of good books.
