I haven't read it, but I subscribe to author Ryan Holiday's reading list email newsletter and he had this to say when the book came out:
"A nice new read about the Silicon Valley written by Wall Street Journal reporter (and Tom Wolfe's daughter). It's more pleasant and less cynical than Chaos Monkeys but probably a little more naive too. I was interested in the fate of the various Thiel Fellows since I've met a few of them over the years and was a college dropout myself. Wolfe makes the point that dropping out or getting one of these fellowships has become just as much of a 'track' as the Ivy League these days. Anyway, some great sentences in this book. Not sure how it will stand up over time but was worth a couple hours of my time."
Would you be interested in a site that lists books that have been recommended by public figures like PG, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Obama, etc? I've been kicking this idea around for a while.
A lot of analytics reporting for internal clients - here's what's happening with your section of the website, here's how we can drive more traffic.
We also do a lot of Adwords and Facebook advertising. We've seen some good success with "wellness" advertising on Facebook - targeting certain demographics with reminders for annual mammograms, colonoscopies, osteoporosis screenings, prostate exams, etc.
Wanted to be a baseball player. Played through college, got a communications degree, now work as a Web Strategist for a hospital. Working on a baseball-related side project though.
There are many employment-related hashtags you can be using when you post to twitter that may increase your audience. I'm sure there are some for working remotely as well.
