This has been an amazing week at work. I’m very much looking forward to sharing what we’re up to in the future but for now, some links.
Comet ISON – Did you know there was a comet up there, right now, about to zing passed us and the sun and back out into space? Don’t miss it.
Jeff Bezo’s Reading List – What books does the CEO of an online book store (I know, this is a huge generalization for Amazon’s business) have his management team read?
Audio: Rocking Chairs – A mix by my friend Yaron.
Conan O’Brien joins LinkedIn – He was afraid we were running low on blogs.
Videos: GitHub Guides – Want to learn the version control software git? Try out GitHub Guides.
Robby Leonardi’s Resume – An incredible animated resume. Just scroll down the web page to learn more about Robby.
App: Tweetbot 3 (iPhone, iOS 7 only) – Be sure to check out Shawn Blanc’s review.
Photo: Shipwreck, Rossbeigh Strand, Glenbeigh, Co. Kerry, Ireland – This ship wrecked on this beach in 1904. I had no idea it was that old when I saw it in October 2011. Man I miss Ireland.
Film: Blackfish. I had a very, very hard time watching this. I almost shut it off twice. I recommend watching it. People need to see this before making vacation plans.
Discussion: How to estimate programming time – This is really, really hard to do. I agree with some of the commenters. The way we do it… break it into weekly or manageable chunks, multiply by 1.5.
