Colphon |
The first sentence of the Colophon reads "The insects on the cover..."
I would hope that someone at O'Reilly is aware that spiders are not
insects, but arachnids.
Note from the Author or Editor: Please change "The insects on the cover..." to "The arachnids on the cover..."

Correction:
e.g. p.373 "Orkut, the social network Google bought a few years ago, took off in Brazil" which is definitely wrong as Orkut is "born at Google" by the "Turkish Engineer Orkut"
Note from the Author or Editor: You are completely right, Orkut was an in-house 20% time project at Google, sorry for the mistake, they do happen.
"Orkut, the social network developed at Google as a 20% project by Orkut Büyükkökten, took off in Brazil"
