ENCHANTMENT THE ART OF CHANGING HEARTS, MINDS, AND ACTIONS

In the past, I've owned my own business. Also, I've worked for a Fortune 500 company and I worked for a little Ma & Pa place. Over that time I've read several business books but Guy Kawasaki's book Enchantment is the best book I've ever read on business. Actually, it's one of the best books I've ever read on LIFE.

No, Guy isn't going to tell you what to look for in an accountant or how to find a web-designer. This book is much more existential. Guy tells you how to create a foundation for your business, promote it and operate it with the highest ethics and standards and how, when doing so, you'll enchant anyone who crosses your path.

TakePlace was made with you in mind It's about ideas and innovation, creative perspectives, and solutions. We're advocates for change, because change needs friends. We explore complex systems, adaptive agents, modeling, simulation, artificial life, and complex (information, biological, and social) networks. We especially focus on the Web as a complex information network in which we leave abundant traces of our social and semantic activities: what we do, what we are interested in, whom we talk to, what knowledge we acquire and contribute. Our research spans from modeling the dynamic processes that occur on the Web (how information networks grow and evolve, how individual and collective traffic patterns emerge, how attention bursts are generated and shaped by social and search tools) to designing tools that mine the Web to build better search, navigation, management, and recommendation tools (where ‘better’ means more intelligent, autonomous, robust, personalized, contextual, scalable, adaptive, and so on).
