Book Update

I have read a ton of books since I’ve been "not-blogging" and I want to make sure that I have them logged. So here goes.

First up we have what was labeled on audible.com as a "speech". In reality, it’s a telephone conversation that was recorded. So right off the bat I was a little dissapointed. I downloaded the program because it semi-applies to website marketing, which is basically what I spend my time doing during the week. It was so basic though that it didn’t help out at all. For what it is I guess it’s alright, but I certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who has a decent amount of knowledge in web marketing. Oh, the name is Create One-Page Web Sites for a Steady Income Stream and it’s by Jeanette Cates.

Next up is a truly remarkable book that I thoroughly enjoyed. The Second Coming of steve Jobs is about… well… the second coming of Steve Jobs and Alan Deutschman did an excelent job putting it together.

Steve Jobs is a charasmatic innovator who I would love to one day hear speak. He is a true innovator and risk taker unlike anyone I have ever read about. The book details the life of Steve… good and bad. Highly reccomended. If you have any interest in business at all, this is a great story. I think it’s so important in business to create remarkable products and that is what Steve does best.

That’s all for now… I’ll update more book stuff soon.
