I’m sometimes asked for suggestions and ideas on blogs/books/articles to read, and one of the more frequent recommendations I make is Fred Wilson’s blog, in particular his MBA Monday’s series. Fred used to have a tool for managing the table of contents, however that has since been removed. This post is purely as list of shortcuts to make it easier for me to share Fred’s insights with others.
