The world is crazy and sometimes life hits people hard. Here are a few in need that have hit close to home recently.

CHOICE Humanitarian plane crash
Micro loans are proving an excellent way of changing the world. I first heard about these at a lecture at UVU (formally UVSC). That was interesting because that organization (through BYU) only loaned to women. I just heard of kiva, thanks to Seth Godin. I haven’t tried it yet but it sounds so promising because of the transparency. Apparently you can track the money you loaned exactly: who, where, what. And when you’re done, just loan the money to someone else.

Agile Software Development with SCRUM by Ken Schwaber
My rating: 3 of 5 stars SCRUM is a process I had heard a lot about but I hadn't ever really learned about. I'm glad I did learn about it, how it works and how it came about. The main idea is to enable development teams to focus on development without distractions or interruptions from management or anywhere else. The most helpful part was the section on empirical process control and how such an approach is the only way to deal with creative development. The defined process approach can never work; despite what they may have taught in school. View all my reviews >>
