Llama Gets Down to Business

As interns we are encouraged to learn as much as we can, take advantage of all the resources the publishing company has to offer and talk to as many people as we can.  Remember the COO (he new my name)…well yesterday I talked to him for a half an hour.  We had a really nice conversation about the publishing industry, different approaches to the business, and just what goes into the COO’s job.

We talked about Apple’s Kindle killer…or should “killer” have a capital “K” too?

Here are some links to info about the iTablet, predected to come out late August early September.

Ok, I need to run to work but before I go I am going to share with you the advise that the COO told me…

Look at where we are, where we want to or should be, figure out how to fill that gap and you’ll make an name for yourself in publishing.

Now that I’ve written that, The Gap ad “fall into the Gap” comes to mind.
