BTW, I'm reading an excellent book that has nothing to do with GG, called "The Tipping Point" by Malcom Gladwell. I heartily recommend it to y'all. Nothing to do w/ GG? Gladwell came to Microsoft a few months ago, and they gave out autographed copies. The book, FYI, is about the "tipping point" beyond which a phenomenon becomes an epidemic. No really novel insights from what I can tell, but lots of interesting examples and an understandable vocabulary describing the phenomena (I suspect the same could be said of Moore). Ever the celebrity-hound, I emailed him to tell him about Geoff Moore, as there appeared to be some similarities between Gladwell's work and his. He said that he in fact talks about Moore extensively toward the end of the book (I still haven't gotten that far).
