Let me echo "That was fun!" and if I wanted one-minute videos made, I'd vote for you instantly. And yes, I voted for your video as a Goode match. Best of luck, Renn-man.

Michael, a case in point--you have shown Leadership 2.0 in proactively allowing your author's books to be accessible on the digital Kindle 2 though the built-in speech function. Thank you! Today Random House told Amazon to turn off that function for all their authors--including author Barack Obama. (Sigh) Can you address some sane words about "embracing change" and 'building a community" of readers not yet served to your fellow publishers for the 15 million print-disabled readers, including my blind friends, who are potential book buyers?

It takes nearly a year for the National Library Service for the Blind/Library of Congress to put a best seller into Braille or recorded form. Those books are free on loan to my friends; but NLS will never have available the breadth and depth of knowledge even one large publishing house makes available to the sighted. The new technology is there; the leadership is holding back. How very Leadership 1.0 of them, and how lovely it would be for my friends if the talking digital book machines now coming out are not held back to a leadership 1.0 standard.

Michael, you rock!
