This textboard, Scheme, and SICP are too elitist. These are only attractive to the members (or wannabes) of the modern priestly class of academics. What do the commoners of he third estate want?

The commoners love to gossip and buy the latest hot proprietary closed-source cool technologies. The uncomfortable truth is that Google's goolag is more attractive than the GNUlag.
