I think there should be more links to the Gift Shoppe - at the top of the page with the links to all the other sections, on the front page somewhere, etc. I only found out about it because Adam posted about it when others started discussing regexes and people were recommending buying Mastering Regular Expressions. Personally, now that I know about it, I'm going to be ordering all books that we buy at work through the Gift Shoppe. We recently ordered quite a few books that are on the page and I would have done it through PM if I'd known about the shop.

    Maybe we could use the same convention for linking to monks by name (i.e. vroom) for book titles so that they link directly through to the Gift Shoppe so it would be WAY easy for people to do it...

      You sort of can, the books each have named anchors. But you have to make a "real" link, ie: <a href="index.pl?node_id=29195#title"> which will link to Buy Stuff and jump to the specified title (if it can find it.)
