Sounds like a very interesting book. It should be very educational to read some of the details behind their wild levels of success. Oh and my library doesn't have a copy yet, so it's this or wait :).
Very good points and it is something many of us forget over time. Thanks for the reminder! We definitely need to practice doing what we believe we want to achieve in our lives!
Torley,
Your posting has done a couple of things for me personally --
1. got me excited and interested about learning to play (if only I could HOLD that interest);
2. helped me to realize that I am not alone. There are other COMPLETE goobers out there too. :)
Thx for the read and, even more, thanks for the entertaining videos. You've put a lot of time and thought into this posting and FWIW, it hasn't gone unnoticed.
I'm going to have to add this title to my list of books I want to sign out of the library at some point... I do think about search methods sometimes, and I like Google's products. It'll be good to see how they use that 20% rule!
very Interesting..
I am currently doing my Internship for the Summer and I am looking for company that the company that Am doing my Internship want/will like to sell their office recycling paper and also looking for grants for winds/solar panels. If anyone know any companies like that please leave a message.. thanks
I think being frugal means something different to everyone. For me, I cut coupons, go to local farmers markets, and I have tried my hand a making jellies and canning. I have also had some frugal projects go horribly, horribly wrong. But I mark those things off the list and move on. I'll try anything once, but if I fail, I learn from my mistakes!
We live close by in Santa Clara, and I noticed pretty much the same thing about the rents 2 months ago. I did write a letter to my landlord, asking him to reduce the rents. He agreed to it but asked us to sign a new lease for an year ( which was reasonable IMO), since our older lease had expired and we were on a month to month lease. With a baby on the way, we wanted to move to a bigger apartment anyway, so we declined the reduced rent and will be moving out soon. However, my experience says, "It never hurts to ask". Who wouldn't want to shave a neat $200 from their monthly budget with a 1 hour of work. Thats a lot of money ( for us at least) to leave on the table.
My fiance just graduated and is looking for a job. We're really hoping to get his employment situation figured out as soon as possible so we can begin house hunting.
We would like to get in a home before Nov 30 so we can get the tax credit in 2010 and use it to pay for our wedding in 2011.
Sounds like a great read, and it matches all the management books I've just started to read. Actually the books I'm reading are focused specifically on leadership but I bet this google book would spark a ton of ideas. Hope I get to read it soon.
I love Google and am facinated by their business structure. I would love the opportunity to win this book!
Thank you,
Jessica L.
Looks like a very insightful read!
I want the book!

Wish I could work at Google! I have so many ideas that just get wasted--love the 20% rule.

Sounds awesome!

looks like it got mighty fine reviews on Amazon
I've always been intrigued by the business model at Google. The book sounds like it will be an interesting read.
This sounds like a very interesting book. Thanks for the entry :)
