+ 37signals founder Jason Fried wrote an excellent article for Inc. Magazine on why most business writing is awful.

+ MOXIE Conference tomorrow! I’m hitting the stage to do a mock-negotiation scenario with financial advisor Linda McCauley on how to wheel and deal like a boss. If you’re going, please say hello!!
