This morning's discoveries

...after coming across the third reference to tech business magazine Fast Company in as many days, I finally went to check it out. It's fascinating--Fortune Magazine for the Web 2.0 era. I feel like I just got in on an old secret, but that's no reason not to share.

Reading Fast Company introduced me to Ning -- critics of the Fast Company article say that it's shameless advertising posing as journalism, and they have a point. But Ning is a pretty cool company I had never heard of before, perhaps best described as "make your own Facebook." You can build your own social network.

You'll also find that Chip and Dan Heath have a regular column in Fast Company. We're bringing Dan to Philly on June 10 to talk about Made to Stick & its relevance for nonprofits. Register here!
