Beautiful Bridge Photos.

This guys writing is really good, check out his other articles eg. "Most Startups Fail" about getting to v1.0

Thanks for the post.

Certainly. His article about N.A.D.D. (http://www.randsinrepose.com/archives/2003/07/10/nadd.html) was so spot on that I had to consume the rest of his writings. Very cool to see a true nerd brained person that connects so well with other nerds, yet has an awesome knack for understanding "normal" brained people as well. It seems like he would be a great boss.

For anyone interested, the BBC produced an excellent series "The Seven Wonders of the Industrial World", one episode of which covers the Brooklyn Bridge.

It's available as a set of DVDs, but the book is also well worth getting. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Seven-Wonders-Industrial-World-DVD/d...
