 egoldstein says: I recommend these books to anyone interested in starting their own business...particularly one related to technology. Anyone who has already read some or all of them, would love to hear from you. I'd like to add the book "The Google Story" by David Vise to this list. I definitely found it educational and inspirtational as it relates to trying to build Clipmarks. It was really interesting to be reading about their ideal, utopian vision during the same week they acquiesed to China's censorship. I have read a few of these and I do agree. What I found interesting is if you compare these to some of the old business,marketing, and other realted area books, one can see the progression technology has had over the last 15-20 years. Kurzweil is another author with a few books worth reading. The guy is waaaaaay out there and having see him via a telepresence (a step above vide conferencing) at CMU last year, it was just a weird and eeerie feeling. Considering I love Sci-fi - his telepresence and his topic (actually a precursor to his new book) made me a bit scared. Kind of liking watching the Star Ware movie and finding out how Annikin became Darth Vader. Nonetheless Kurzweil has been p... Which 2 rmowery? Hey 'the guy': you comment a lot about being a big reader. have you read any of these? Still need to read -- Good to Great and Crossing the Chasm Ah, I highly recommend both of them. Huge influences on me. have read most of these and enjoyed them- i would add WHO MOVED MY CHEESE by Spencer Johnson as well as GETTING TO YES, by Fisher-- the above books that EGOLDSTEIN suggests are good for senior people DRIVING organizations... i have suggested two that are for people in the rat race (or mouse race if u read the cheese book)... anyone else have good books to throw out there?- (i often listen to audiobooks on my iPod, www.audible.com)... 'the guy' I would recommend 'Weaving the Web ...' by Tim Berners-Lee. It doesn't totally fit in the list of books that are useful for starting your own business. But then again it's a must read for anyone starting/having a business online, on the web, ... Very good suggestions. I just bought the cliff notes about different periods of time in our history. i know so little, but don't have the time or patience right now...so i figured the cliff notes (actually called Spark Notes) would do. I'm on page 25 of "The Enlightenment." Ohoh, Guy has something to say  Where's "The Prince" on that list? Grove's book is definitely one i'd like to read. Good suggestion tbp. What I don't like about amazon is I can't see inside because I don't buy where I search: I search in .com any buy in .jp.. anyway that's a nice clip! |
