Today, I listened to a webinar by Daniel Pink, who latest book, To Sell is Human, is topping my stack of books to read. He shared his favorite books, blogs and ideas. Two of his ideas: Mobile is bigger than we realize and What is college really for? are fodder for budding dreams of what's next for me.

But before I go there, I want to share some of Daniel's insights. He believes that subscription services will gain traction for busy, budding enthusiasts of almost lifestyle, sport or habit. He explained a subscription service for shavers, Dollar Shave Club. You select the razor you like, pay a nominal monthly fee ($1 for the cheapest blade) and they send you one razor a month. Here are some of the other sites he shared that interest me:
Farm to Baby Grape Crate and Bark Box.

Here are some of Mr Pink's favorite blogs, that I plan to investigate:
Farman Street - The blogger reads constantly and posts highlights. An online Cliffnotes?
Barking Up the Wrong Tree - His latest post explains 3 ways to train your brain to be happy.
Springwise - The essential fix of entrepreneurial ideas
Arts Journal - Daily arts in the news
Findings - A daily round up of academic studies

He also shared some of his favorite tools: Dropbox, Jambone, Everyman headphones, Idonethis.com and Restickable Tabletop Easel Pads. My favorite was Instapaper, a simple tool to save web pages for reading later.

Thank you, Daniel Pink, for sharing your insights. Now, onto your book!
