So I got my copy of the new The Smashing Book 2. Smashing Magazine is for anyone into design, web development and new media. It is one of many websites I follow on a weekly basis.

The book came nicely (over) packaged and was immediately opened. It is a resource in itself and provides 10+ essays on topics from mobile app design to self-publishing – all new and not available on the website.

If you’re a designer, interested in UE or just like to read Smashing Magazine – then you’ll be wondering if the book is worth the €22. Yes it is … it’s a good update on trends and it’s always good to read other people’s opinions on social media or mobile apps.
