Since February, 6000 people have downloaded the draft of my book Pomodoro Technique Illustrated. To have 6000 readers in the first six months was above all reasonable expectations. Many of you have sent me e-mails with comments, corrections and other kinds of feedback. I have read, analyzed, modified, and above all learned an awful lot.
Rumors have spread, and recently it became clear that the book – or a version of it – will be published by Pragmatic Bookshelf. It is as paperback, PDF, mobi (Amazon’s Kindle) and epub (eg Apple’s iPhone and iPod Touch) – perhaps even as podcasts. Right now it looks like it will be released in February 2010.
Thanks to everyone who has helped me so far! I hope you will enjoy the new book.

Pomodoro Technique Illustrated book cover

Hey Staffan!
I just finished to read the book telling my girlfriend that I’ll come back to her in few minutes every time she interrupts me. :)
The book is just great. I was a bit afraid of its length as it looked like the pomodoro technique is so simple that just 20 pages would have been enough. But even if it’s simple, there is a lot to say on brain theories, mechanics, metrics and so on.
Thanks again for this good work!
Cheers,
Philippe
Thanks Philippe,
If I only had more time it would have been 500 pages more about the Hows and Whys… :-)
When it comes to features behind the scenes, there’s a lot to learn. I recommend the literature list in the book wholeheartedly. I’ll publish it here on the blog with links to Amazon as soon as possible.
Be kind to your girlfriend! :-)
