| milobo | says | It looks like Brain Rules is the winner in our first Plurk-Book-Talk poll www.plurk.com/p/y3h2 Who's planning to participate? |
| milobo | says | and what ideas do you have for getting started? |
| kwhobbes | says | I'd be interested - does a wiki interest anyone? |
| nnorris | says | I'm in! |
| Skip Z | Moi! |
| karlyb | says | I'll give it a try! |
| mindelei | will | need to see the reading schedule (I've got three classes 16 wk. classes crammed into a 6 wk. period). |
| Colemama | says | I've been wanting to read it, so depending on the venue, would enjoy discussing! |
| 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 |
| KarinB | 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 |
| nnorris | says | I downloaded it from Audacity, will listen when I walk my dog |
| mindelei | says | I hadn't thought about getting the audio version - that could be helpful. |
| wsigele | says | I'm willing to give it a shot! I'll be on vacation in Aug. for 2 weeks but...I'm in! |
| nononi | is | in! chapter a week seems okay but i will buy it today and see if a more logical way emerges |
| ✿honeymic | will | love to try, am in another book club too. |
| milobo | says | Since there are 12 brain rules in the book, we could divide it that way and do a different rule each week. |
| Teryl | says | I'm in! Sounds like a great plan...one brain rule a week. I go back to school Aug. 4th. |
| karlyb | says | that makes sense. Allows time for people to join. And won't miss out if on vacation. |
| Skip Z | I just ordered my copy along with - the title is worth the click (read LAT op-ed piece by the authors)- search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbninquiry.asp?EAN=9781596912830&x=4814407 |
| Kymberli_M | Count me in. When do we start -- giving folks time to purchase it? |
| mhobkirk | says | I'm in...when do we start? |
| 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? |
| ✿honeymic | thinks | July 21st would be perfect for me as I have a road trip around then and can read during the drive. |
| Kymberli_M | thinks | that's a great idea. |
| karlyb | says | sounds like a good plan |
| 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? |
| milobo | says | Diigo, del.icio.us network, ning, wiki, other ideas? |
| mindelei | says | Sounds like a plan! |
| Skip Z | says | I'm in!!! |
| milobo | says | I got mine in yesterday - I can't wait. I'll start a new plurk sometime today with my ideas on how we can organize. |
| cleisure | says | I am so glad someone replied to this! I missed it! Yes, I am in.  |
| ehelfant | says | the companion website has stuff to go with each rule www.brainrules.net/the-rules its a good read  |
| Colemama | says | I created a Diigo group called "Brain Rules" Discussion - will try to send e-mail invites, but feel free to join & contribute! |
| 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? |
| Durff | feels | a Ning would be great |
| Durff | wants | to thank Jackie for the RSS! |
| GingerLewman | wonders if a Ning is too big for a book discussion. I like this...each rule gets an original plurk? |
| milobo | says | We're starting the week of July 21 to give everyone a chance to join the Diigo group and get the book. |
| KarinB | says | just ordered Brain Rules on Amazon for $19.77, includes hardcover book & DVD. |
| iteachcomputers | asks | is it too late to join? |
| nnorris | says | it's not too late to join, we start July 21st |
| smeech | says | Have you check out: www.brainrules.net/pdf/BrainRules_JohnMedina_MediaKit.pdf |
| GingerLewman | says | I listened to the intro and chapter 1 today. Will listen to chapter 2 later. |
| McTeach | is | officially saying "I'm in!" for the Plurk Book Club! |
| dmantz7 | says | he will have to miss out on this conversation as the family will be on vacation. Will there be a site providing the discussion? |
| kgard | says | I'm in |
| lfeld52 | says | count me in. will probably read most on Friday when daughter is having surgery... |
| dedra | says | I am in too |
| scout7 | says | I am going to look for the book. I am always up for a book club. |
