  • As an avid The Office watcher (and I know the British version was probably better), this was a good read on the lessons we can learn from Andy Bernard’s struggles in management. 
  • Google is buying companies at a crazy clip, so if you are looking to sell out, start there.
  • Nice piece in the Times about the less-attractive side of entrepreneurship.  If you are looking at leaving the cubicle behind, read this first.
  • Its December, which means year end is here (among other things), so if you want to avoid Uncle Sam in April, get your tax avoidance strategies in place now
  • When getting ready to start up, here is what not to do.  
  • A little love for Iowa’s start up culture.
  • You can have all the drive and ambition in the world, but entrepreneurs also need these 4 things according to Glen Blickenstaff on Inc.com.  I tend to agree, especially in regards to making a difference.
  • If you have thought about kicking off a pay-per-click strategy for your business, now is a great time as the big search firms are offering a ton of help and free trials to get you started.
  • For those still trying to figure out how to integrate Twitter into your strategies, here are a few examples on how others are doing it
  • Looking to go online with your business?  Might want to watch this for a few tips on how to draw customers.
