Manga guide to databases – Boing Boing [via facebook]
The concept rocks. Maybe everyone will want to be in db if this is their first exposure. I’m sure it makes these concepts so much more accessible. I’m not sure if it’s meant to attract more females (given the style of manga that I can see on the cover) to db, or just a younger audience.
As someone who loves databases, I can’t help but find any new forms of advocacy to the genre of interest.
How great would it be to have similar books for other dry subjects? Better yet, how great would it be to write one of these books. This would satisfy the fantasy of writing a graphic novel and a technical book in one. It is just me? Or is writing graphic novel and tech book the secret fantasy of other tech-geek/graphic-novel-fans/writer-wanna-be out there?

Since I am getting back to web development and web stuff in general, I checked the title. It looks like it’s in English, but won’t be released until December. I am not sure I can stand the cuteness of girl mangas, but I’ll keep on eye on it.
