Jason Fried is the co-founder and President of 37signals, a privately-held Chicago-based company committed to building the best web-based tools possible with the least number of features necessary.
37signals' products include Basecamp, Highrise, Backpack, Campfire, Ta-da List, and Writeboard. 37signals also developed and open-sourced the Ruby on Rails programming framework. 37signals' products do less than the competition -- intentionally.
37signals weblog, Signal vs. Noise, is read by over 100,000 people every day.
Jason believes there's real value and beauty in the basics. Elegance, respect for people's desire to simply get stuff done, and honest ease of use are the hallmarks of 37signals products.
David Heinemeier Hansson is the cofounder of Basecamp and NYT bestselling coauthor of REWORK and REMOTE. He's also the creator of the software toolkit Ruby on Rails, which has been used to launch and power Twitter, Shopify, GitHub, Airbnb, Square, and over a million other web applications. Originally from Denmark, he moved to Chicago in 2005, and now lives between the US and Spain with his wife and two sons. In his spare time, he enjoys 200-mph race cars in international competition, taking cliche pictures of sunsets and kids, and ranting far too much on Twitter.
Rework shows you a better, faster, easier way to succeed in business.
Most business books give you the same old advice: Write a business plan, study the competition, seek investors, yadda yadda. If you're looking for a book like that, put this one back on the shelf.
Read it and you'll know why plans are actually harmful, why you don't need outside investors, and why you're better off ignoring the competition. The truth is, you need less than you think. You don't need to be a workaholic. You don't need to staff up. You don't need to waste time on paperwork or meetings. You don't even need an office. Those are all just excuses.
What you really need to do is stop talking and start working. This book shows you the way. You'll learn how to be more productive, how to get exposure without breaking the bank, and tons more counterintuitive ideas that will inspire and provoke you.
With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who’s ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs they hate, victims of "downsizing," and artists who don’t want to starve anymore will all find valuable guidance in these pages.
昨天高烧,到了38.7˚C。只好请了两天病假回家。在回珠海的长途车上,读完了这本朋友推荐的书。 如果不是好友的大力推荐,很可能我会错过这本书。通常我不会去买一本流行读物,特别是讨论非确定性领域,尤其是管理、创业这种热闹话题的书,这个出版领域实在是泥沙俱下,良莠...
评分2013年12月27日更新 今天偶然发现了之前写的这篇书评,一看日期刚好是三年前的今天。已经记不太清当时写这篇书评的情境,但从文字里还能看得出年(gou)少(pi )轻(bu)狂(dong)的印记,评论里也被各路大牛拍了不少砖。 当时我还是一名学生,还未料到半年后...
评分本文首发于:http://www.elviscai.com/books/rework/ 这本《REWORK》看的我真是热血澎湃,每天走出地铁站的时候——我上班会在地铁上读书——心里都砰砰猛跳,仿佛马上就要开始某项伟大的事业了…… 37Signals是我最为推崇的Web 2.0创业公司,产品出众——无论是团队协作工具...
评分微信公众号:shenshike-HK (心是主人身是客) === 1999年,Jason Fried和两位小伙伴創立了一家名叫37 Signals的网絡設計顧問公司。天文學家曾收到37個疑為外星智慧的信號,他們以37 Signals命名公司,可能喻示著他們具外星人的思維。 15年來,37 Signals堅持精減及靈動的...
评分一 这本书是和《getting real》一起买下来的,getting real也不错,这是37signal出的第二本。觉得<Rework>比<getting real>在境界上更上了一个层次。 真正做过事和没做过事的人真的是完全不一样,这是真正实干家的真知灼见。语言平实不失幽默,通俗简洁,是商业写作最好的...
开头比较猛,后面越写越平淡,总体新意有限,但是挺实在。我想任何一个有自尊的商学院都不会推荐学生读这本没什么技术含量的书,但实际上每个创业者都应该读读,尤其是中国的。
