Glass, Pipe, and Newspaper, Georges Braque, 1917

Daily Thoughts 11/03/2015

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook.

I also read some more of Mindware.  I am reading about A/B Testing which is often used to test websites as well as Before/After testing which is often used to test introducing new ideas to supermarkets and stores.

I also read a little bit more of If Someone Says, "You Complete Me, " RUN!.  I learned that Whoopi Goldberg has a cat, is from New York, and does not want to get married.  The book is partially autobiographical.

I spent some time looking over the new version of the website today.  I made some minor suggestions for edits.
