Book Winner, Twitter, Rate Drop and Weekend Reading
Book Winner
t seems that there are a lot of Warren Buffet fans here (who isn’t?)! Our giveaway of “Pilgramage to Warren Buffett’s Omaha” received about 150 entries and out of those entries, 1 lucky winner was randomly chosen. Using a random number generator, Blitzkrieg (#87) was chosen as the lucky winner! Congrats!
I mentioned a little while ago that I joined twitter to see what the hype is all about. Maybe I’m old school, but it has taken me a while to warm up to the new “must be part of” social media. Where I’ve found the most value is the ease of asking my “followers” questions and getting quick responses. If you would like to follow me on twitter, you can see my twitter profile here.
