Show #6: Pamela Slim, Escape from Cubicle Nation
The Startup Success Podcast
In our sixth show, I interview consultant, blogger, podcaster and writer Pamela Slim, who was liberated thousands of people from their cubicles and helped them escape to richer, more lucrative and more fulfilling lives as entrepreneurs.
Pam’s blog, Escape from Cubicle Nation, is one of the top resources on the net for people who want to stop being “good corporate team players” and own their own teams, for better or worse. Pam’s advice is definitely a keeper.
Also, Pat and I chew over the state of Silverlight and where is the killer Rich Internet Application? I have a few tips on taming the email beast and Pat makes the case for Silverlight for microISVs and startups.
