We're definitely interested in knowing about any of the errors, both
typographical as well as other, since it can be corrected in the
second printing, and it can be documented so others may not have to
find out the hard way.
I wonder whether practices have changed or whether I'm just getting
more picky in my old age. I look at my shelves full of computer books
from the past 23 years and think that it's only the ones from the past
5 that *need* web sites to list their errors. (And, no, this isn't a
shot at _Cocoa Programming_ since I found fewer problems with it than
with many recent purchases.) Maybe the internet has allowed publishers
to adopt the software development mindset: get it out the door and fix
the bugs in the next release.
Or maybe it's a more profound problem since the people who produce my
morning newspaper have also become illiterate, for which I blame
spell-checking software in no small part. :-)
