ACM Membership Benefits

I've been a member of ACM (http://www.acm.org) for about a year now and it's almost renewal time. It's been arguably the best investment I made last year! As a member of ACM, I am entitled to a number of great benefits that help me excel in my career. My favorite ACM benefits are online books from Safari and Books24x7 and Element K-based online courses and virtual labs. Here's a complete list of what you get with an ACM membership:

• A full year 12-issue subscription to the newly redesigned and redefined "Communications of the ACM," ACM's flagship publication, the most trusted source for industry information for today's computing professionals.
