A photo mysteriously turned up in some of our inboxes today… this guy looks really familiar! Hmmm.

The Real Ladies Man

REWORK

posted by Tim on April 23rd, 2010

Just finished my “first” reading of REWORK, the new book from the founders of 37 Signals.  It is a bit edgy, but simple and has plenty of nuggets worthy of posting on the morning mirror. They evangelize about keeping things essential, easy to use and simple. Some favs during my initial run through include:

  • Embrace less mass
  • Emulate Chefs
  • Decommoditize your product
  • Don’t out-spend, out-teach.

I seem to find a new favorite every time I open the book, coupled with some provocative items that stir up debate. Overall, it is a book I see carrying with me for some time. It connects with our ambition to continually run a good business, use our core resources to the fullest, and serve good customers well with products and ideas they can really use….and enjoy doing so.

Louie’s Kids Run the Bridge

posted by Tim on April 11th, 2010

An organization near and dear to our heart, Louie’s Kids – a non-profit organization that teaches youth about the benefits of good nutrition, exercise and adventure in the prevention of obesity – recently had a courageous group tackle the 33rd Annual 10K Cooper River Bridge Run. In the end, they felt great, have more motivation to do even better next year, and got their 15-minutes of fame in the form of a little over 2- minute-video with NBC Chanel 2 in Charleston SC.
