Magazines - Computers
While books are great ways to learn, their long development cycle means that their content is dated the day the book hits the street. Nor can books be easily, or frequently, updated.

Fortunately, programmers who want the latest information have several avenues available to them - magazines, newsletters, conferences, blogs and webcasts - each with varying degrees of "freshness" of the information provided (perhaps 1-3 months with magazines and webcasts or only days with newsletters and blogs).

On this page I provide a summary of the magazines that a Perl programmer might find interesting, categorized as to the information covered. I also highlight "online magazines", where the content is updated/archived on a monthly basis.

Computer Magazines
These magazines enable a programmer to learn about the most important tool they have - the computer. They teach not just about the hardware, but about how the hardware and software can and do work together to provide the results the programmer desires.

If you have any suggestions on newsletters to add to this list, please let me know.
