I’d love to average about a book a week this year, but so far, with January drawing to a close, I’ve only finished two. I had better pick up the pace if I’m going to stay on track…
- i-mode Strategy
(2/5): waste of time. I picked up some neat anecdotes and a better understanding of i-mode’s inception, but I’d have learned more just reviewing the Wikipedia entry. McKinsey consultants are portrayed quite unfavorably here, but I found myself more frustrated at the author’s lack of business acumen and found her frustration with the consultants naive.
- On the Road
(4/5): It took all sorts of willpower to stay mentally engaged and to actively visualize the scenes in this manic roadie romp, but the effort really paid off. I’m still experiencing flashbacks, days after finishing it.
(Please pardon my experimentation with an Amazon Associates account I set up years ago but never used, until now.)
