That Kawasaki Guy

I’ve been a fan of Guy Kawasaki for along time, I remember reading about him in the late 80’s while he was at Apple, I friend gave me a copy of The Macintosh Way and have fond memories of the book (no idea what happened to my copy). I should mention that i have never owned a Mac (or any Apple product for that matter) but have always liked Apple, it seems they are always up to something.

Guy is now a managing director at Garage Technology Ventures a Technology VC. I daily read his blog, it has been consistently a good source of interesting information. Reading his blog took me to TED which is now one of my favorite sites.
I recently re read How to Drive Your Competition Crazy: Creating Disruption for Fun and Profit and it seems that each time I read it I pick up a something I had previously missed.
Here is a Google video on The Art of the Start it is very good presentation and it has lot of tips for entrepreneurs (I have not read the The Art of the Start: The Time-Tested, Battle-Hardened Guide for Anyone Starting Anything book yet but it is on my list).

Why is software developing so hard?

Andy Lawrence wrote on this blog :

This is why most software projects fail. Not because the software industry is incompetent or immature in its methodologies. Not because software is just too intrinsically hard. Nope.
They fail because this stuff is just too damned interesting with too many ways to do things and too many things to do.

Can’t really argue with that ….
