I just added a twitter gadget to my iGoogle (homepage) which has made me much more twitter active.

I will twit about Iran issues, websites issues, and now working as an engineer issues.

My twitter followers count is pretty low at 179 followers right now. I’ll shoot for a (hopefully easy) 250 followers by end of February.

I signed up for ESPN online magazine subscription for about $5.00 a month. I looked all over my account information and on ESPN website. I couldn’t find any link anywhere which was frustrating.

They make it very easy to sign up but very hard to cancel. This is not an un-common practice among businesses. I just didn’t think a business such as ESPN would get involved in such practices.

If you want to cancel your subscription you will have to call the phone number below:

1 – 888 – 549 – 3776

Beware that they will try to sell you discounted yearly subscription instead.

Iran’s military influence and control over Iran’s economy is growing fast. By some reports they control more than 70% of the import and exports of Iran.

Its funny how the government decides to so called “privatize” government owned businesses so they put them on sale on Iran’s stock market and a day after military owned companies buy all of its available stocks.

This is bad and good. Its bad because Iran is moving towards complete (as if it wasn’t already) military dictatorship and will make the country hell for people. On another hand it is a sign that this government is at its last stand against people and about to become history.

The audio book I ended up buying for month of February is Crucial Confrontations by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan and Al Switzler.

The book is about how to handle complex confrontations at work.

I’ll post a review of the book at the end of the month.

Few months ago I  read a new book every few weeks. I haven’t read a single book since December. So I just signed up for Audible gold membership.

I get one credit every month which can be used to purchase one audio book. Between going to work every day from 8 to 5, doing work projects at night, and managing my website, I don’t think I’ll have time to read (listen to) more than one book a month.

At the beginning of every month I’ll post the book for that month and at the end of month I’ll post a review of it.
