For the love of learning
I suffer from a problem. I love learning. And I love learning about anything. Which puts me in the over-used category of "jack of all trades, master of none." My knowledge probably generally goes very wide instead of deep. At least not as deep as I would like.
I love programming and solving peoples’ problems with software solutions. That’s why I’m in the business I’m in. I love learning about marketing and sales. I love learning about better lean manufacturing practices. And now learning about those in practices in healthcare. I love learning about the latest technologies. The latest business trends. I wish I had time to learn more. There’s just not enough time to soak in all the good stuff that’s out there.
Here is some of the good stuff I read:
On business: Tom Peters
On sales: Bill Caskey (although really I listen to his podcasts more than read his blog)
On lean: Evolving Excellence, Get Lean and Prosper, Lean Blog
On technology and trends and more: Guy Kawasaki
On marketing: David Armano
I suppose I should add a "blog roll" on my page that includes these…seems to be the common way to give props to your favorite blogs.

Hey Scott, Thanks kindly for your mention of our podcast in your post. Through your list, I also liked David Armano’s content as well. Thanks for making suggestions. Caskey
