Bill gates was a PhD student at Harvard, and Steve Jobs went to Reed College. They both dropped out before graduating. I didn't check the others on the list, but I suspect many of them probably do have some degree of post-high school education, though probably didn't graduate for whatever reason. And, Google do employ people with no university degree. That is just one factor they use in their selection process. This list is wrong.

]]> Comment on The Rise of the Coffice by Aprylcat http://myceolife.com/2009/06/the-rise-of-the-coffice/comment-page-1/#comment-2679 Aprylcat Sat, 09 Jan 2010 19:00:16 +0000 http://myceolife.com/?p=459#comment-2679 Great article! My current "coffice" is Coffee Connection in Salt Lake City, UT. I've been typing away on my laptop there since they opened in 2007. It's a great way to work especially when I want to get out of the house. What I would like to do is start an online community of the frequent mobile entrepreneurs that come in to CC (as we call it) and share tips for being productive in our little wifi workspaces :) That way we can interact with more than just a nod when we pass by each others table. Interaction at the workplace is vital to work morale but can be a challenge to do in person while at a cafe. It's something we new entrepreneurs took for granted I think when we had a regular office with a constant stream of coworkers day to day. Great article!

A manager of mine many years ago put it this way: "If they'll leave, I have no use for them. They no longer exist." He would wait until they were out the door, file a trespass complaint with the police and, if he didn't already know, find out their new employer and submarine the job offer or set out to destroy their new employer if theuy didn't play ball. If you want to risk damaging the organization, you have to be willing to face the consequences. As the old cop TV show said: "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time!"

]]> Comment on Is Twitter a Business Tool? by Jeff http://myceolife.com/2009/05/is-twitter-a-business-tool/comment-page-1/#comment-2335 Jeff Thu, 26 Nov 2009 19:37:25 +0000 http://myceolife.com/?p=442#comment-2335 I think twitter is an awesome business tool. It's a great way to gauge customer satisfaction as well as provide better support. Not long ago I was having issues with a bandwidth provider in our datacenter. Eventually I got frustrated with customer support giving me the run around and I turned to twitter to vent. Within 5 minutes of the rant I got a direct message from a lead engineer of the bandwidth provider and within the hour my issues were resolved. I think twitter is an awesome business tool.
