Business Model Generation
Oct 09, 2009 06:44
Yesterday evening I received the printed version of "Business Model Generation" by Alexander Osterwalder and Yves Pigneur with contributions from another 470 people.
Here is the synopsis of the book quoted from their web site:
The book is exquisitely designed and a pleasure to hold and read (though at times the small fonts make my reading slower). After only skimming through it I have a good feeling that I will enjoy this book a lot. Already after reading only 50 pages I have learnt quite a bit. The concept of a business model canvas is great and widely applicable. I can't wait for the weekend so that I can finish reading this book.
There is a 72 page PDF preview on their site but I encourage you to buy the book, it's well worth the money.
Have a nice read.

Disruptive new business models are emblematic of our generation. Yet they remain poorly understood, even as they transform competitive landscapes across industries. Business Model Generation offers you powerful, simple, tested tools for understanding, designing, reworking, and implementing business models.Business Model Generation is a practical, inspiring handbook for anyone striving to improve a business model — or craft a new one.

Amazon Kindle Coming to Europe

There is a new Kindle
on the block! And this one can be ordered and used in Europe including downloading of books over "whispernet". Finaly a Kindle for the rest of the World. Now it's time for them to get publishers to put more books into Kindle format.
It's in pre-order and will ship on October 19th. I hope the DX is not to far behind!

I was just looking at a video of the upcoming 6.0 release of the Safaribooks Online from Oreilly Media and it really look good. On their corporate home page they have a rather nice demo of the new features. They include the following:
- Much refined interface
- iTunes style folders and smart folders
- Bookmarks, notes & tags
- Sharing of notes, & folders
