Book #30 was "Microserfs" by Douglas Coupland. A bunch of geeks leave Microsoft and start their own company, and so they spend all their time working or blowing off steam, and either way talking geek talk. It's cool to read, although rather unrealistic slight spoiler ) It's a bizarre amalgam of philosophy and goofiness, with a chunk of over the top and sacharine thrown in at the end, but ... I guess I pretty much loved it. :)
