Books To Avoid

So many business books…shouldn’t be books.

Most have a good idea in them, but not every good idea should be a book.

Some ideas need 140 characters to be complete. Authors should Tweet those ideas, rather than Book them.

Other ideas could be a gnarly-sized blog post. 5,000 words of gold, for us all to experience and for the idea to spread.

Occasionally – just occasionally – an idea is Book-worthy.

Most business books are tweets disguised as books. I’m happy when I find a good blog post disguised as a book.

Whenever we find books that are deserving of their form, we’d do well to be evangelic of them.

Perhaps that way we’ll all find ourselves with fewer books we wish we hadn’t bought.
