Fast Company - April 2009

 Print

Posted by: Mark Juleen

Tagged in: Untagged 

OK, I'm not even halfway through the April issue of Fast Company and my mind is racing.  I have to share 3 stories I think everyone should read.

1. What Should I Do With My Life Now?

2. Sell Handcuffs - Why customers will pay you to restrain them

3. Boy Wonder - How Chris Hughes Helped Launch Facebook and the Barack Obama Campaign

If you don't subscribe to Fast Company, then I suggest doing so.  I'm never disappointed.  Enjoy your day.

You know, I picked up Fast Company a couple of months ago and read it from front to back and was so impressed! I have forgotten how good it was! Thats it! I'm getting a subscription!
