Laetril

I have started another blog. Yeah I know!

I named it Laetril and it’s in Spanish. My goal is to discuss a variety of topics on the way we knowledge workers carry out our jobs, and I decided to start it after a few (Spanish speaking) friends and colleagues asked me about related issues that I have been mentioning here and in some informal chats.

I am aware that by writing in Spanish I am making it hard for some of you out there; however, writing in English would make it as hard for some others. And since NEH is already in English, I thought that a Spanish-language forum would make sense.

So here I am. Have a look at Laetril!

Peopleware

Today I skim-read Peopleware. I had read it already, maybe 10 years ago, but I needed to find some details so I grabbed it from the shelf for a minute and ended up re-reading most of it again. I am still impressed at how good this book is. It’s just a little pearl, so current and so insightful, especially the section on work spaces.

Girlfriend in a Coma

A few days ago I finished “Girlfriend in a Coma” by Douglas Coupland, one of my favourite authors. Awesome. I absolutely loved it. Romantic, powerful, gripping. Wow. Can’t say more. Go get it.

And welcome to NEH 2!

Yes.

Good old Nothing Ever Happens has transmogrified into this cooler, slinkier, chachier look and feel, which delegates all the dirty work of blogging to awesome WordPress so I can focus on enjoying the sound of my own typing and nothing more than that.

I have moved all the posts and comments in the old site to this new one. From now on, the old URL http://www.verdewek.com/blog redirects here, http://neh2.wordpress.com. Please update your links and favourites accordingly if you will. Thanks.

So, enjoy!

And let me know what you think. Please. Thanks.
