eek! It’s friday and for a while, it has been “Facebook Fridays” on my blog. I’m changing that and hope to bring you a new theme on fridays…Welcome to Feel Good Fridays (FGF) – a spotlight on happy, moderately tech related tips/tricks/anecdotes.
I finally caught up with my listening and stumbled upon Sheryl Sandberg’s (COO of Facebook) talk entitled Spotlight on Scalability. Yes I thought this was going to be about some Hadoop style architectural talk but I was pleasantly surprised.
The blurb:
Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg shares her trilogy of ideas for a successful start-up and a fulfilling career. Her thoughts include building an enterprise with scalable vision, building personalized, scalable products, and the ability to scale your own connections and capabilities.
It’s a thought provoking, immediately useful and an easy listen. I especially liked her story telling and how her kids are teaching her. Hope you enjoy the session.
Thank you Sheryl for turning me on to DonorsChoose.org, an organization that I had never heard of, until now. I’m a fan.
Oh, before I forget, I did promise that you could make some money by reading my blog, so here goes…
Every Feel Good Friday, I plan to give two gifts of US$25 to projects on DonorsChoose.org. The projects will be picked at random based on input from you (yes you make money for a good cause just by reading my blog)!
So send me a link to the project and I’ll pick 2 entries at random. Email me allandcp@microsoft.com.
Happy Feel Good Friday!
