Hint: use the light.
A bit of inspiration is all we need.
What was once attacked as fringe is now mainstream.

This AP story highlights the lack of sales data for the Amazon Kindle. Amazon, meanwhile, talks up its digital strategy in Monday’s NYT.

I’m not a big reader of the Tim Ferriss 4-hour workweek blog.
I think thought I know knew why.
For the past year, it wasn’t really written by him. With two ghost writers paid very little, Tim Ferriss fooled a lot of readers. Imagine if the New York Times was really published by the Chicago Tribune. When your name [...]

Here’s where Pareto’s principle of 80/20 comes in. When I’m in the [...]

I saw this last week in the Wall Street Journal and forgot to share it. High school teachers and college professors have software that can detect plagiarism.
Now it appears that Internet dating service enthusiasts or social networkers may also want to do a little background checking when considering getting serious with someone they meet online. [...]
Are you on Facebook? Do you want to quit Facebook?
