What do you want to know?

What do you want to know?
- axod 18y agoSome cool stories about technology, scaling, performance, building products, improving products, new features, cool hacks, etc would be what I would find interesting. It just seems that a lot of the "business advice" is a bit nothingy - Not just 37signals, but Seth Godin, etc. Often it seems like having a "life coach" who used to work at Hallmark telling you things you already know in a slightly sermonistic way.
- jasonfried 18y agoWe share this stuff on our blog almost every day. Keep an eye on Signal vs. Noise (http://www.37signals.com/svn http://www.37signals.com/svn) and the Product Blog (http://productblog.37signals.com http://productblog.37signals.com) and you'll see all sorts of posts about building products, performance, improving, new features, tips and tricks, case studies, etc.
- bootload 18y ago"... What do you want to know? ..." Is the book being pitched as a 'business' book, an alternative way to tackle business? Or is this another tech-related book? I suspect the former as the article makes numerous hints to a popular rather than technical audience.
- petercooper 18y agoJust an extra data point for you, but I would find some sort of chronological history of 37signals, the development process behind each product, the whole way things have come together, with useful tips and insights interspersed, an absolute must buy. As much as I like the general advice, I think a slightly more narrative piece would be an excellent read.
- axod 18y agoI'd second that. Biographies are really interesting. I'm half way through "Founders at work" at the moment - really good.
