We have to band together to NOT LET INTERNET SENSORSHIP happen. This is our forum, a forum where the truth bubbles to the top.....The effectiveness of their efforts isn't isn't what aorries me, it's the fact that they are doing it at all..... When did we become a communist state? Their about to ruin the best thing that happened in the past 1000 years.

Also worth adding rentoid. www.rentoid.com

A site which encourages people rent items from each other rather than buy them.

Every rental transaction is one less thing people buy.

It's good to hear Zuckerberg opening up. Though I still think Facebook is just getting too cluttered. The more members it has, the worse it gets...

Re: 2 cool websites: LikeBetter & MoreHotter

Both do not have a business model. Where is the revenue stream? traffic is pointless if you can't make money or a significant social contribution which neither of these sites do in my opinion. Here's what I ask entrepreneurs about the business ideas. "Tell me in one sentence how you make money." If it involves selling the company, I never invest.

Re: I will do one thing today

Before I answer the question: lOne thing we all do is have a list of items to do, which will never happen on any given day. There is nothing more de-motivating than only seeing 10% or 20% of our daily tasks finished. Best practice is to have max 1-3 items.... then have a list or "promotable projects".

Today - I will organise my files & plan my new office. I reckon I have a heap of producivity ahead once that's done.

Actually - that's two things... I will organise my files. :-)

Re: Entrepreneurial Ethics, what would Alice do?

I think modern day entrepreneurs are far more ethical, becuase society is moving this way. And great entrepreneurs leverage changes in community sentiment.

Steve,

Firstly thanks for the heads up on twitter. And thank you for providing such a great resource in summerizing books via video - well produced and succinct. I have been listening to this while working, love your idea and will be passing it on to me friends for certain. I'll also blog about you on www.startupblog.wordpress.com - For someone who is addicted to reading, it'll help me choose my books, and keep me up to date until I get to rad them all.

Cheers,
Steve Sammartino
