It's been a good week for books - read the last Harry Potter book, and I have pretty much the same opinion as everyone else - I really liked it but I thought the ending was a cop-out.
Just finished a book called the Kite Runner last night. That is one fucked-up story, but it's beautifully written; I'm really looking forward to reading his next one.
Work is, as usual, very busy, but I can see the light at the far end of the tunnel...
I have about three books going at the same time. In prepping to teach this semester, I am musing on the question: "What will be the nature of work in a globally connected outsourced world?" I highly recommend Daniel Pink's "Free Agent Nation." I am also in Edward Catranova's "Synthetic Worlds" and Mau's "Massive Change." Isn't it fabulous where part of your job is to read books?
