#2Some constructive criticism on the font used for headings: it's atrocious. If that's your handwriting, good for you - it's pretty good handwriting - but it definitely affects the readability of the content.

#3Points for Vector Clock name drop. I'm a big fan of that pattern.

#4I'd love to read an actual review of the book, but this was thin to the point of being blogspam. The article's author told me nothing about the book, except that it apparently contains 80 design patterns about distributed systems that the reviewer promptly forgot.

#5I've found this book to be quite solid so far: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920032175.do
I'm about a quarter to half of the way through and it's been interesting and quite thorough even though it's still a "beta" book. The content is a little high level so some familiarity with distributed systems principles is useful but the text is very approachable and easy to understand (so far).
I got it after seeing several recommendations in other HN threads so I'm not the only person that has found it useful.

I can also recommend this. Even in its beta form its still a worthy read. It feels more "rubber on the road" and less formalism. I'm looking forward to the finished book.

Another +1; tremendously useful even in its extended beta state. :)

Yes! I bought it a few weeks ago and am now going through it. A great overview of the topic.

I was also surprised to see this, of all my articles get popular on hacker news. I put more effort into my primary school homeworks!
