What I’ve read the past week:
Ten Ways Ordinary People Became Good Leaders, part one (and part two) (from Thom Rainer): This is just a really really cool article. Being a leader, a good leader, is much more than the glitz and charisma that meets the public eye (if even that). As I read this article, I can think of quite a few ‘ordinary’ good leaders, too. And, this article encourages me as I do a good job with #5, #7, #9 while I continue to invest in the other ways.
Imagining a More Engaging Web: 3rd Anniversary of IE Test Drive (from IEBlog): This is a cool milestone for IE. And I’ve got a few features from over the years making some of these demos work 🙂
Man offers to sell house for bitcoins (from Ars Technica): This is kinda ridiculous. Whether it goes through or not, it’ll be interesting to see what bit coins can do to the world economy if it gets this kind of traction
Why we shouldn’t be so quick to set sail with Rob Bell (from Think Christian): The author does a good job of identifying the how the thoughts were formed rather than the thoughts themselves. Nuanced, but critical.
The Bible: It’s Just Not That Into You (from Rachel Held Evans via Ashley): Things that make you go “hmm…” She hit that mug right on the head.
