Just a quick tip before I start writing my formal Technology Post for the week. I wanted to recommend Audible.com. I listen to audio books just about everyday. I have a long drive to and from work and find that audio books fill a void. I simply do not have the time at home to read books and while I see some folks in their cars at 75 MPH tying, that I won't do. For me, I just plug my iPod into my car and listen to my favorite audio book. I have about 200 at this point. Most of them are from the business genre but I do have a few that are purely for enjoyment. For example, I have the entire Dan Brown library on my iPod. I really like him but not just because of The Da Vinci Code. Digital Fortress and Deception Point are also excellent books. They have a great library and if you subscribe like I do, you'll get the books with a significant discount. Bottom line, it makes reading or in this case listening, easy. Give them a try. Thanks and Have a Great Weekend...
Michael, Great suggestion. Sometimes I like the act of just reading --- especially at bed time or in the middle of the night when I awake and can't go back to sleep. But sometime, listening is more relaxing --- while taking a nice soak in the tub --- or driving where you can't read. What is the best few business books you have run across lately. Are there any that you found particularly useful
Michael, thank you for the tip, I also love to read, and would love to do this while driving!
Hi Michael, Great post with good tips. Thanks for sharing. Keep posting best.

That is a great tip, Michael. What a great way to make your commuting time more productive. It seems like I live in my car, and I have an iPod - why didn't I think of that? :)
That's a great idea actually, it's like having your own university on wheels! Instead of stressing about the drive, you can learn on the go (or just enjoy a good story) Thanks for the link I'm going to go check it out now.....
I find audio books very convenient for my busy life style. I listen to them while i'm driving, working out in gym, doing housework.
