- Owning Ideas - Excellent essay from the UK Guardian discussing the problems associated with the world's current handling of intellectual property issues.
- Processing Job Applications - Blog entry by Joel Spolksy. I happen to agree with Joel about the importance of selecting only the best candidates to work for you. I believe that it is better to pay more for 1 great candidate than to pay less for 2 average candidates. Note that I didn't specify how I would judge a great candidate or an average candidate -- That's a completely separate topic. Anyway, I found Joel Spolksy's method of whittling down job candidates very interesting. In case you didn't know, Joel is the author of the fabulous book on Software Engineering (Joel On Software
).
