At a tech company like Velsoft you would imagine everyone would be reading CHIP, Computer Power User, WIRED or other top technology magazines. It turns out that this is not the case at Velsoft. The staff here seems to have a very eclectic taste in reading, as I found out by snooping around their desks, talking to spouses and significant others, checking their web searches, iReaders, etc.
