Dan,

Wonderful book! I'm doing a review and will distribute it as widely as my littleguy.com role allows. I'm curious though, why do you quote reviews from NY Times, CNN, "Global Executive Section" of The Economist and Monster.com when book is about you and I?

Maybe those reviewers saw themselves in a fantasy painted Pink? Those folks still work for big dogs of business and I doubt very much that those in board rooms of global corporations are quite as cheered by your ideas as reviewers who work for them.

I am impressed and cheered though, by your work and wish you continued success. With regrets that it profits Warner Books more than Pink, Inc.

It's my personal belief that Free Agent Nation should be owned by Pink, Inc. I also believe that if Daniel H. Pink were to include a review by Mike Banks Valentine of WebSite101 on his web site http://www.FreeAgentNation.com , that it would do little for his credibility or his book sales.

I toot a big horn on front page of my web site too because when visitors see a quote from Entrepreneur Magazine on my home page, they may take a little longer to click away from my site.

Once I've got them though, I rely on testimonials from small ezine owners to prompt subscriptions to my newsletter, further down page. And small is what Pink thinks future holds for new workplace.

This book is about independent freelancers merrily toiling away in their underwear in a home workspace, as Pink states, in HOHO, or "His Office/Her Office". He seems to delight in creating new terms to define what is increasingly common for self-employed professionals -- independence.

I have never worked with a group of seniors before, and my assumption was automatically this: they know nothing about Web and I will have to take it really slow and carefully. What I didn't realize is that I am in for a big surprise.

I think I learned more about Internet than I taught my wonderful group of participants. We had more of a fun discussion rather than a class. Some asked questions, others answered, and I watched in amazement just how much these people already know about Internet.
