An excellent idea. Critics may moan about some of the reading being Brad & associates’ books but that would be totally missing the point, also known as “Haters Gonna Hate.” Techstars has a ton of information about entrepreneurship. No other place has as much real observation and participation with startups on both the sides of entrepreneurs and investors. Coupled with Brad,...

JoCo 2012 Tour Dates or Funny Goodtime Nights for... →
If you’ve never been to a Jonathan Coulton show, there is no excuse for you to maintain that horrible win - loss record in 2012.

I am fortunate enough to have been backstage - because of someonethat has played shows with him - as well as in the audience for a few JoCo...

Creative Recreation
Source: cr8rec.com via Brian on Pinterest
At the current gig, I am researching the best shopping cart / ecommerce solution. This entails lots of documentation and forum reading - not every one’s cuppa, but not the worst thing. It also allows me to come across some great-looking ecommerce websites. But none have grabbed me like Creative Recreation site.
It is a clean, uncluttered design...

Today’s word is mundange. Let us break down this word and derive its meaning.
