      Most business books have one or two blog posts worth of interesting ideas.

          @paulg @cdixon "business books"? Reading "corporate history" books is quite beneficial for understanding how business, in general, works.

          @paulg @cdixon I always thought that American business/marketing books are like American coffee. Not much coffee, lot of water.

          @paulg @cdixon a good idea usually Twitter long but expanded to a book for filling up pages or to be more relevant to all range of readers?

          .@paulg @cdixon in fairness most blog posts have less than one blog post's worth of good ideas.
