Getting Real

email

I have finished reading the book Getting Real by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier, the guys from 37signals. This book is just awesome, really, just get it. It proposes ideas to create web apps and how to make them viable. Ideas such as having less features, less code, less employees, and less documentation, but more satisfaction being an entrepreneur. All these ideas worked nicely for them when they were developing Basecamp and the other apps. Anyhow, these suggestions do not need to be applicable to every endeavor in your business life, but just give them a try and use what suits you better.

Highly recommended.
