Wisdom from Bob Parsons

Posted by Michael

Want to make it big? Always be moving forward. Never stop improving. Larry's big idea!:

<snip>

Make it your goal to be a little better every day.

The moment you stop improving your organization, it starts to die. Make it your goal to be better each and every day in some small way. Remember the Japanese concept of Kaizen. Small daily improvements eventually result in huge advantages.

(Via Hot Points.)

Some very wise words from the owner of GoDaddy.com. I recommend reading the entire post. I always enjoy Mr. Parson's blog entries because he's actually done what he writes about, not just thought about it.

More on another business related blog I like to read tomorrow.

Scobleizer gets grumpy

Posted by Michael

The Mac guys start calling Vista names already:

MacDailyNews starts the name calling already: "Microsoft's Windows 'Vista' promises similar features to Apple's already-shipping Mac OS X."

Oh, really?

<snipped several defensive statements that don't really have anything to do with the fact that Vista is not here yet. Go ahead and read the rest.>

(Via Scobleizer.)

Getting touchy are we? I think what they mean is that your operating system is a year late and several features short. You shouldn't take these things so personally. Chill out, drink a latte, listen to a pod blogcast (snort) and try to get some perspective.

It has been my experience that when someone gets defensive, it is often because they are feeling attacked. Why would he think a simple statement of truth is an attack? Doesn't Vista promise similar features to Mac OS X? Isn't Mac OS X already shipping?

What's the problem? Oh yeah, soon we'll all be on Intel processors so you won't even be able to hide behind gigahertz any more.
