The Whuffie Factor: Using the Power of Social Networks to Build Your Business by Tara Hunt: Think of each authentic social interaction as a transaction (an exchange of social currency,) the more meaningful transactions you make the more capital you gain and the greater your social worth. That's the basic idea behind whuffie (read my review on this book)
Tribes: We Need You to Lead Us by Seth Godin: Seth Godin's best work, IMHO! (Although the further I get through Linchpin, I may change my mind.) This book is just gets you in the mindset of viewing yourself within a larger community and enabling yourself to be a leader in that community.
Crush It!: Why NOW Is the Time to Cash In on Your Passion by Gary Vaynerchuck: I put this last because once you finish reading it, you are PUMPED and ready to get to work on building your personal brand. Gary is one of the most motivating voices ever, and not in that Kum Ba Yah granola kinda way - but in that get off your ass and get to work! kinda way! (read my review on this book)

I like the theme, the only thing I noticed is that the number of comments “12″ hugs the right edge of the speech balloon. I think I little right padding is in order.

thnx!

I’ve been looking for a template to use and really love its simple, open layout. I think I’m base my site around this template as well. Thanks!

Dont work with WordPress 2.7, i get a lots of errors like this
“Fatal error: Call to undefined function userphoto_the_author_photo() in /var/www/virtual/noola.de/htdocs/blog/wp-content/themes/Simple Changes/sidebar.php on line 26″
and the Design is Broken :-( , http://tinyurl.com/avgmwd” rel=”nofollow”>look here
Design: Great Work, i Like it.

@ noolaa check out the “read me” document that comes along with the theme. You’ll need to either install the User Photo pllugin (to get that author bio/image in the sidebar) OR youll need to disable that feature in the theme.
I have clear instructions on it in the readme file, check that out and if its still not clear – let me know! :)
February 26th, 2009 at 4:57 PM
@Liz oh my fault, you are right i dont read the “read me”, now i will read it :-)
Thank you, great design.

Hello.
It’s functional to a colective blog?
March 27th, 2009 at 3:08 AM
Hello,
Nice theme. I will use them in a multiple author’s blog.
It’s possible to identify all post by its author? I.E. have a “posted by…” in all posts?
