30 pdf documents for the designer in you

PositiveSpaceBlog have complied a list of 30 pdf documents for designers.  Here are a few that caught my attention:

• CSS Support in Email Clients (newletters)
• Introduction to Good Usability
• Time Management for Creative People (although I don’t think I’m one)
• Getting Real – 37 Signals (online, not a pdf)

I think the list is very good – I know I can do with all the help I can get.
