• 
  July 04, 2008 at 15:15 kwhobbes says I'd be interested - does a wiki interest anyone?

• 
  July 04, 2008 at 15:52 mindelei will need to see the reading schedule (I've got three classes 16 wk. classes crammed into a 6 wk. period).
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 15:52 milobo says kwhobbes A wiki or a Diigo group to link the plurks might be a good way to keep things together.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 15:53 Colemama says I've been wanting to read it, so depending on the venue, would enjoy discussing!
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 15:58 karlyb asks I don't know the book, but maybe could we do it chapter by chapter, one chapter a week? Break it up, allow you to join in as yr. time allows
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 16:00 beil says I'm in...I like the idea of a chapter a week, if each chapter is in new plurk thread, will be easy to follow
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 16:01 nnorris says I downloaded it from Audacity, will listen when I walk my dog
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 16:21 mindelei says I hadn't thought about getting the audio version - that could be helpful.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 16:31 wsigele says I'm willing to give it a shot! I'll be on vacation in Aug. for 2 weeks but...I'm in!
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 16:33 nononi is in! chapter a week seems okay but i will buy it today and see if a more logical way emerges
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 17:21 ❤ honeymic will love to try, am in another book club too.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 17:52 milobo says Since there are 12 brain rules in the book, we could divide it that way and do a different rule each week.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 17:57 teryl_magee says I'm in! Sounds like a great plan...one brain rule a week. I go back to school Aug. 4th.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 17:57 karlyb says that makes sense. Allows time for people to join. And won't miss out if on vacation.
•

• 
  July 04, 2008 at 19:38 mhobkirk says I'm in...when do we start?
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 19:43 milobo says how about giving everyone a couple of weeks to get book & start reading, then starting Rule 1 discussion the week of July 21?
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 19:51 ❤ honeymic thinks July 21st would be perfect for me as I have a road trip around then and can read during the drive.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 19:55 kmulford thinks that's a great idea.
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 20:00 karlyb says sounds like a good plan
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 22:23 milobo says The week of July 21 it is! Any suggestions for where/how to share links to related info and store a link to each week's plurk discussion?
• 
  July 04, 2008 at 22:24 milobo says Diigo, del.icio.us network, ning, wiki, other ideas?
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 00:02 mindelei says Sounds like a plan!
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 08:49 skipz says I'm in!!!

  July 05, 2008 at 19:28 Colemama says I created a Diigo group called "Brain Rules" Discussion - will try to send e-mail invites, but feel free to join & contribute!
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 19:52 milobo loves colemama! One of my personal goals this summer was to learn Diigo and this is a great way to do it!
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:30 Durff says I am! Is the platform here or on diigo? (I probably missed something). Anyone know how to grab the RSS feed to individual plurks?
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:32 JackieB Durff Go to the plurk page (lower right of the replies). RSS feed is there.
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:32 Colemama says durff *think* we'll be using Plurk for discussion and Diigo for resource/link share? Other ideas?
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:38 milobo says that sounds like a good way to do it, colemama - discuss here and share links on Diigo.
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:52 Durff feels a Ning would be great
• 
  July 05, 2008 at 21:53 Durff wants to thank Jackie for the RSS!
• 
  July 06, 2008 at 02:38 GingerTPLC wonders if a Ning is too big for a book discussion. I like this...each rule gets an original plurk?
• 
  July 06, 2008 at 02:44 milobo says Yes, each rule in a plurk is what we're thinking with links to resources and plurks on the Diigo group colemama set up for us.
• 
  July 06, 2008 at 02:45 milobo says We're starting the week of July 21 to give everyone a chance to join the Diigo group and get the book.
