I was a member for a few years. I left when my role moved away from software development for few years.
I'm thinking of rejoining, there are some interesting articles [Edit this is incorect: and if you pay for the digital library you get Safari Online access too I think]. ACM seems much more interesting than the BCS which (from an outside prejudice perspective) feels even less relevant.
Edit: Looking at the site again I'm wrong and Safari Online access is extra. Not sure if I'm misremembering or it has changed. Given this I'm unlikely to rejoin.
- jschulenklopper 12y agoAgree on the edit. For clarity: about 700 Safari online books, videos from O'Reilly and other publishers are available to ACM Professional Members without a subscription to the Digital Library necessary. In addition 500 Books24x7 titles and more than 150 Morgan Kaufmann and Syngress books are available to ACM Professional and Student members, again without Digital Library subscription required. Professional membership to ACM is about $100, and subscription to the ACM Digital Library is an additional $100. Student memberships fees are reduced to 20-30% of that.
