I'm reading the book, The Art of Non-Conformity, and thought you all might want to check out the author's website - http://chrisguillebeau.com/

Speaking of reading lists, what are people reading these days? I just finished Rework by 37Signals and getting thru Apprenticeship Patterns by David Hoover and Adewale Oshineye (gift from Dave, btw). Both are good reads, I recommend both to anyone building product or starting new ventures.

I've got the 4-hour body.  It is interesting, I tried his "slow carb" diet for a few weeks, got quick results the first week, then nothing the next two weeks.

I recently got "The Law Of Success", Napoleon Hill's Precursor to "Think and Grow Rich".

I was borrowing "The Rules Of Work" from Walter, which is very good, given my career.

...and the geeky stuff, "Wizards First Rule", and "Star Wars: The Last Command".

I'm also enrolled in a coaching program (I'm receiving coaching) from the folks at RIch Dad, Poor Dad. I've been reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad and the Cashflow Quadrant.

Good stuff!

Finished Rucker's "Ware Tetralogy" a while back.
Nutty. Stupid. Prescient. Brilliant. Recommended.

Just because I want to be heard, I'm reading Total Leadership (http://www.totalleadership.org/), Universal Principles of Design and The Art of Agile Development (James Shore) for work related stuff.  I'm teaching myself statistics by reading a few other books, and geeking out with Philip K. Dick's Collected Stories 2 (http://www.amazon.com/Remember-Wholesale-Collected-Stories-Philip/dp/0806512091/ref=pd_sim_b_1).
