There are two new books out that I hope everyone buys.   Yes, I am friends with the authors... so buy buy buy!

Bricklin on Technology by Dan Bricklin.  I've been fortunate over the last year to not only meet Dan, but to work with him at Socialtext and become friends with this computing legend.  Dan has forgotten more about computers, technology, and sharing information then I'll ever know.  I love talking to him not just about the past, such as the days of VisiCalc and Lotus 1-2-3, but also about the future and how people will interact with computers, software, and devices such as phones and gaming systems.  There are few people on the planet that can offer the educated perspective on technology than Dan does.

Twitter For Dummies.  Love it or hate, Twitter has become a part of our daily lives.  My Boston based friend Laura Fitton (better known as @Pistachio on Twitter) is joined by Leslie Poston (@geechee_girl) and Michael Gruen (@gruen, whom I've not met) in explaining not just the basics of Twitter, but also shedding some light on how businesses can use this new medium.
