Tried viewing this in Chrome but it didn't work. The website says it should be supported. My version is up to date. Any tips? Firefox worked.

Joe from Periscopic here (the company that developed this visualization). Thank you for submitting this, you beat me to it! We used HTML5, CSS3, SVG for this visualization. All of our previous work was made with Flash. Insider tip: Make sur

That site is great! (And the original blog post) Checked out the post and followed with 20 minutes of Freewriting on 750words. I don't think it should all be interesting. Actually that is the point. If you write down enough stuff most of it

Unfortunately I think this article only counts a commute if the person is driving. It may be refreshing to see the difference for people who walk, bike, or take public transit. Personally, my bike commute makes me happier and healthier.

"investors do not fund ideas" This was an often repeated remark at a recent angel investing conference I attended. Sorry that is not what you wanted to hear. Unfortunately it is reality. You need to create some concrete representations of y

Great summary of some of the potential changes coming to books as they become unbound. I think the most important part is finding the right container that seamlessly creates a networked book without burdening the readers by requesting more

People need ideas in every job. In order to get paid and be legitimate you need to execute on those ideas. As a product storyteller, you need to help the group align their individual ideas and execute on a grander scale. Honestly, I am in t

The idea behind the post was interesting at first. Unfortunately, I think you try to cover way too much. And in covering so much you fail to develop the connection between the two histories you discuss. Finally, to the end of the post is a

This is cool but I'm not sure if it's really publishing nor is it something new. I help manage a large publishers proprietary platform for online textbooks. We use svn to hold all of our books. We then serve them to their site in an online
