The personal weblog of Marc Zeedar.
Author: Mike Daisey
Hilarious book about the horrors of working at a dot-com startup. Mike is refreshingly self-effacing, witty, and incredibly lazy. He’s not stupid, he just doesn’t like to apply himself. Out of this comedy we get some interesting insight into Amazon, the whole dot-com-gold-rush thing, and life. Excellent read.
Topic: [/book] |
I'm Marc Zeedar, writer and dreamer. I'm interested in writing, technology, programming, soccer, philosophy, engineering -- pretty much anything creative.
In college I was given an assignment to write a mini-biography. Rather than do the traditional, I wrote mine as a chronological list of the influential books in my life, explaining what they meant to me (both at the time and later). This turned out even better than I expected -- the saying "you are what you eat" really ought to be "you are what you read." So I decided to do that with my blog: it's a journal of what I'm reading, seeing, thinking, with the occasional unusual event thrown in. Feel free to add comments!
