In today's Brain Storm! Business Podcast, we will discuss the 22 year old entrepreneur who left Harvard to market his wonder-creation, Facebook. This is a great, fairy-tale business story (well, except for the fact that some other Harvard students are suing him, saying he stole their idea) about someone who made it right out of the gate. His story is a combination of kismet, hacking, and determination to keep what is his.

I'm Reading This To You Because You Need to 'Know' The Word (as opposed to 'glance at an open page of a book containing' the word) Writing--though it's where The Word starts--does not pack any EMOTION but that in the reader's voice. People are TAUGHT to just skim any "important reading" to pick out "keywords and -phrases" and "talking points" (i.e. the facts that are the answers to the questions on the test). But life's answers are in THE EMOTION, which can't be 'skimmed' because you can't respond to life's problems with 'an answer.' So I here deliver the various readings I see ... with EMOTION. Listen to the full dump and hear the true-Sparks.
