@Saad – I’m sure the Eee PC will work well for the activities you mention – anything browser based should be fine.

@NextInstinct – plus I had two client meetings and a biz dev lunch! BTW, let me know what color laptop you want – they come in all kinds of pretty colors now.

Nice pic! Well I would really love to see a review of the Eee laptop from you soon! (Following you on Twitter).. I have tried it a few times and it seems pretty cool. What I’m interested to know is…whether it is ‘good enough’ for the following purposes – Email, IM, Twitter, Browsing, Blogging, RSS etc. The best thing i love about it is its ‘portability’.

CheerS!

Hi Saad,

It is here: http://twitpic.com/fja

On page 342, Andy points out these value in being
Sincere, Transparent, Consistent.

Hmmm, like emailing me twice this afternoon to ask preference, and confirm address, while busy
finalizing a presentation he’s delivering at
Microsoft.
It’s inspiring to see ‘genuine’ alive and well.

I must admit to the book "Radically Transparent" is excellent thus far. Jaan Kanellis's last blog post..Get Answers From All Three Search Engines

@Jaan – congrats! Not sure if you can buy a Chicken Dinner on Amazon though.

@NexInstinct – Thanks for entering and thanks for supporting the book. Just remember, if you kids get their hands on the Eee PC, you won’t see it again.

Wow! Thank You! Wow!
What can I say?

I am so grateful for Andy’s/ MarketingPilgrim’s
generous opportunity.

I feel a bit embarrassed.
Winning a huge prize for participating on such
an edifying site feels like
benefiting from a pristine spring every day, and then, receiving a gold chalice as well!

Put another way;
It’s great to have such a trustworthy source of fresh, relevant news and insights.
But Radically Transparent was already the icing on the cake, without winning anything!

[Full disclosure:
I'm not gushing about it because I won.
Since I received the book from Amazon,
I've been telling every "guru" I'm friendly with, and all friends,that they MUST read this book before they spend another day online.
It's that important and well done.]

Winning this is humbling but welcome.
We thank you sincerely.

PS-
I am Not going to text message the kids while they’re at school!
Yes I am.
