I know this is really boring and you are skipping to your next site but if you want me to write about my love life, about a particular company or anything, leave it in the comments section. When I get back from vacation I will post about it.

    Read The Virgin Suicides. Just finished reading it myself, and it is now my favorite piece of literature.

    Michael Crichton’s latest one “State of Fear” is pretty good if you like his stuff. I just read Guy Kawasaki’s “Art of the Start” which is money if you’re doing a startup. Jim Collins’ “Good to Great” is in progress now and is interesting. Clayton Christiensen’s “Innovator’s Solution” is dense but a very solid read. Haven’t read many leisure books lately but those are all good reads.

    Being that you’ve worked with Facebook, perhaps you could post about what you’ve learned as to what’s most important when growing a start-up and how to scale when dealing with specific audience units, namely individual colleges.

    Moneyball – Michael Lewis. Don’t need to be a sports fan, just an analytic thinker to love this one.

    SmartMobs is a good choice! I read that too. Smartmobs.com has lots of interesting posts.

    House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski – Kudos to you if you find a hardcover copy.

    The Lucifer Principle by Howard K. Bloom – It helps if you have a small bit of genetics knowledge

    A Game of Thrones by George R R Martin

    Have a nice trip.

    Marshall McLuhan – Understanding Media (It will blow you away . . . it’s all about the internet, only it was written in the 70′s)

    Steven Johnson – Interface Culture

    Enjoy.
