Thoughts from the beach about #E20 technologies…

As a result, I’ve had a lot of time to ride my bike and sit on the beach and watch the waves and wait for some E20 Vacation Epiphanies. And as strange (and nerdy) as it may seem, I’ve actually had a few (epiphanies, as well as beers). So here goes. This is the summer that our last goes off to college, and we’re on the verge of becoming empty nesters. I suddenly remembered years ago that I had written an article for the local paper on our beach experience. I wondered whether it was still around anywhere. So I did what anyone would do and did a search on “Mancini Buxton lighthouse,” and voila — there it was. From the Outer Banks News of September 1999, “A Traveller’s Guide to Buxton.” Check it out — http://www.outer-banks.com/ecnews/27index.asp. Not bad,…

Please “Like” Digital Landfill — and I’ll Contribute $1 to JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

Forgive a bit of a personal post today. Here is a picture of my super cool nephew Ben in his Harry Potter disguise. I just added a Facebook “Like” Button to the Digital Landfill blog. I’ll contribute $1 to Ben’s Walk for Diabetes team for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation if you click on it. It’s on the upper right hand corner of the page — HERE. (Where it says “Become a Fan–Like” with the little thumb right above the comments.) My offer ends August 27, so click now! Here’s the back story. A year ago, my sister discovered that Ben had Juvenile Diabetes. Details are HERE. My 6 year nephew Ben is perhaps the funniest kid I know. A few samples of his wit and wisdom: “I’m hot…I’m sexy…I’m sassy and I’m gassy.” “WHAT? I have to give up the stinky talk or Santa won’t come? What about diarrhea? Can I still say diarrhea?” “I played with Baby Jesus at school today.” “You need a pen, mom? Step into my office.” My sister’s family has organized a team (Ben Jamin) for the September 25 Walk to Cure Diabetes in Cleveland, Ohio. I’ll contribute $1 for each Facebook “Like” between…

Summer Reading #4 — Rework

I’ll be taking a bit of vacation over the next two weeks, so I thought I would take the opportunity of highlighting a few books on my Summer reading list. One of the good things about using a Kindle or Kindle on an iPAD for reading is the ability to use highlights to create a running summary of a book’s highlights. Even better is that these highlights are aggregated across ALL readers. So in effect, any book can have a built in summary, generated by the wisdom of the crowds. Pretty cool stuff. So in my vacation posts I’ll highlight a few books I’ve enjoyed recently, and some Kindle-generated excerpts to give you a snapshot of the contents. Rework is both a practical guide for nimble organizations and a great marketing piece for the authors, Jason Fried and David Hansson. These are the guys are the founders of 37Signals. This is the company behind such great SaaS offerings as Basecamp (project management), Highrise (CRM), Backpack (collaboration), and Campfire (activity streaming). Per Seth Godin, “This book will make you uncomfortable. Depending on what you do all day, it might make you extremely uncomfortable. That’s a very good thing, because you deserve…
