Here are a couple interesting posts that I have come across this past week that I thought you might like.

1.  Barry Schwartz, The Paradox of Choice: This is one of the top ten Ted talks and I think if you watch it you will understand why.  Schwartz says that the more choices we have the harder it is to make them.  He says that choice does not make us freer, but actually has made us paralyzed.  It is a bit long I know, but it is 20 minutes well worth watching!

2.  5 Marketing Lessons from Mr. Rogers: How many of us grew up watching Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.  Probably tons of us.  The guys over at Fast Company blog put this post together and it is quite interesting.   Even if your not into marketing it says a lot about the kind of man that Mr. Rogers was.  This is a good read.

3.  Mario Piano Music:  Okay along with Mr. Rogers how many of us grew up with Super Mario Brothers?  The sound effects and music have become timeless.  So there is this guy who has figured it all out and scored the whole soundtrack.  Wow is all I have to say!  You can preview all of his tracks and download sheet music too.  This is cool stuff.
