Raph, thanks for the pointer to the Long Tail. It was great to read the original article, and I had some thoughts myself on it.

Some interesting crossovers on our reading lists. I also thought 1491 was a very, very good history book, best I have read in a long time and I read a lot of history. I thought Pride of Baghdad was very pretty and interesting but fell short of actually delivering anything in the end. I haven't finished Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell because it is too damn big to carry when I travel and I do almost all my reading on planes. Thanks for the reviews, there were some there I will look up now.

Hmm… I’m reading Getting Things Done right now and getting ready to “make the move” to the system. I had a recommeded by an industry peer who I highly respect, and his endorsement was enough.

I’ll have to report back on whether it works for me.

for me to take a look at books I never would have otherwise (because the amount of money I spend in a bookstore can be regressed linearly to discover a direct correlation with the amount of time I spend in a bookstore; time is money, didn’t you know?) http://www.raphkoster.com/2006/10/18/a-series-of-unfortunate-reviews/
