Weekly Grab Bag – March 5, 2010
Hold on to your mice, everyone.
The weekly grab bag streak is now at two.
Of course, it helps when other bloggers and publications push out great content. So, without further ado, check out what captured my attention this week.
1. The Secret to a Lifetime of Productivity — And Five Ways To Find It (TerryStarbucker.com) – I've been on a productivity kick lately, so I'm devouring anything and everything on ways to get more work done strategically. And this hits the sweet spot.
2. 75 Books Every Man Should Read (Esquire) – I'm ashamed to admit that I have read only one of the books on this list (Heart of Darkness). Looks like I have some reading to do.
3. The New News Junkie Is Online and On the Phone (NYTimes.com Bit Blog) – Ninety-nine percent (yes, ninety-nine) of American adults get news each day, according to a new report by the Pew Internet & American Life Project. But how they're getting their news is the hook.
4. To Improve Performance, Audit Your Employees' Email (Harvard Business Review) – I'm going to ignore the grammatical faux paus (emails?) and, instead, tell you that I'm in love with this idea of making effective e-mail practice a part of annual reviews. If you've been reading my blog lately, you know that e-mail and I are on the rocks. This idea has the potential to save our relationship.
That's all I have for this week. As always, you can find all of my links on my Delicious page.
