Viral Loop: From Facebook to Twitter, How Today's Smartest Businesses Grow Themselves
$25.99
I'm usually the last person to pick up a business book, but Viral Loop really got me hooked. Adam Penenberg tells the story of businesses that achieved stunning success by using the new forces of social networking. But it turns out that these forces are not so new after all: Viral Loop is also the story of how the Tupperware company used the old-fashioned kind of social networking--word-of-mouth and parties-- to expand into a cookware giant. If you like Malcolm Gladwell, you'll love Viral Loop, though I think Penenberg does a better job of tying everything together and revealing the big picture. It's also just a good story, as you watch these innovators and entrepreneurs struggle with failure--and success--and rivalries and see how they often didn't realize at first what was so great about their great idea. The book is also about the ways in which technology is changing our lives--for better or for worse--and how creativity meets technology, with world-changing results.

Kleenex Anti-Viral Facial Tissue, 75-Count Upright Box (Pack of 27) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]
$56.59
I picked up a box of these solely because they were on sale and I'm currently in the middle of a cold. I've only been using them for maybe 2-3 days and have gone through less than 10 tissues because I don't know how much more I can take. My nose is raw, red and burns like there's no tomorrow. These tissues contain citric acid and sodium lauryl sulfate, which if you're not aware is a very harsh detergent found in many products that can irritate sensitive skin [I know from past experiences and now buy sulfate-free toothpaste, shampoo, facial cleansers, etc;] Both of these ingredients make for an AWFUL tissue when you're using it to rub against your nose a couple of times a day. And god help you if you accidentally wipe your eyes with these tissues - THEY STING. It also doesn't help these tissues aren't the softest things in the world; I've had worse but also better. Also, they are 3-ply but they fall apart very easily. Take a tissue out of your pocket and you might only get one or two layers from it. They also easily separate when you're using them. To their credit, if you've got all 3 layers together then the tissues are fairly sturdy and don't seem to tear quite as easily but that's the only positive I can find with them.

I don't know why anyone would even need/want anti-viral tissues to begin with - do some people like to pick used Kleenex out of the trash and play with them? If so, you've got bigger problems to deal with! - but these are just awful. When I'm sick I want to use something that's comforting and soothing, not something that's going to give me more problems. I wouldn't use these again even if someone gave them to me for free!

Hi,

Thanks for sending the book safely to my office in Indonesia.

However, so sad that I received the book in wet condition, even tough you sent using DHL courier.

I hope that this kind of accident in delivery will not be happened again in the future, not just for me but for others.

The content of the book is GOOD, but Delivery Process is BAD.

Regards, Irwanto
