On top of introducing a new YouTube channel for Google’s Wave solution, Google is taking the “keep it simple stupid” approach to talking about Wave. Their first go-round was a two hour video….and in today’s short attention span economy – who had the time?

My latest read – The Cell
I finished reading The Cell: Inside The 9/11 Plot, and Why the FBI and CIA Failed to Stop It and was a bit disappointed. Not due to the writing, but rather I also read Triple Cross: How bin Laden’s Master Spy Penetrated the CIA, the Green Berets, and the FBI–and Why Patrick Fitzgerald Failed to Stop [...]

I found Carter’s book similar in [...]

MacroWikinomics: Rebooting Business and the World
I consider Don Tapscott’s Wiknomics essential reading. I just read his tweet that he and Anthony Williams are releasing MacroWikinomics: Rebooting Business and the World in late 2010.
I read his previous book Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything back in 2007 (review here) and I think its just outstanding….minus the role of advanced networks like [...]
Alice for the iPad
The reason excitement for the iPad. I believe if more books like this come from the creative class we will have a revolution in reading. Books and magazines may will never be the same again. And ROIs will rise as well.
