ChangeThis Back This Summer
After a long hiatus, and just in time for summertime reading, ChangeThis — now under the stewardship of 800CEOREAD — will be releasing their next issue of five manifestos in July.
What is ChangeThis? It's thought-provoking reading — simplified. Here's how CT does it:
- They forage for you. They pick interesting reads in two ways: (1) they commission original or little-known works from bestselling authors including Tom Peters, Guy Kawasaki and Malcolm Gladwell; (2) they help uncover new literary gems through their unique slushpile process where people can vote for manifesto proposals from little-known/aspiring authors.
- Readable, usable PDF layouts. Their PDFs are easy to read and use — both offline and on — and contain rich functionalities that enhance their use online. The design sparked off a discussion at MetaFilter and became the inspiration and model for the designers of Before&After.
