The Tipping Point

[MnM]

Forgive me if there has already been discussion about this book (I see a post below about Blink) but I just finished reading The Tipping Point by Gladwell and LOVED it. I found it fascinating! Any others read this book? I would love to hear some other opinions!

I recently finished this one. It was very interesting to read about the minor differences that can create such phenomenons. Has anyone gained inspiration to try something new? I still have yet to think how the info can become applicable ...

This is one of the many books on my to-be-bought list. Sounds like I should move it up closer to the top? I read a review of it and thought it would be quite interesting.

I found it very interesting. We own a restaurant and have applied some of the tactics. For example, we have contacted "Connectors" and "Mavens" in the community and offered free lunches. We are hoping to think of some more ways, based on the theories in this book to drum up business.

I'm just now starting this one and haven't read anything else by Gladwell. Looks like it is going to be a good read.

I'm about 2/3 of the way through this, it's been my bedside book for about a week now, and I'm actually finding myself quite fascinated. I'm going to buy Blink tommorrow on my lunch break.

Yes, I read this about a year ago. It's very fascinating, that entire word-of-mouth concept. Great insight!

What's the difference between Blink and The Tipping Point? I thought it was basically the same thing? I might buy it some time if i hear good enough reviews.
