Fast Company - June 2011

Fast Company June 2011 knew how to catch your attention. Its cover alone was three times the normal length - and all Conan. This issue was mostly about their 100 most creative people in business, but here was a couple of other great articles that I bookmarked.

Meet the App Man at AT&T - app stores aren't just the domain of the phone makers.

Trading Spaces - crowd-sourcing, people commerce

It Takes a Village - How Diébédo Francis Kéré is making a difference at home is should be inspiring to all of us.

The 100 Most Creative People in Business 2011 - a big list, lots of cool people doing cool stuff. (A list you'd want to aspire to be included in.) The ones that really stood out to me:
#1 - Wadah Khanfar (Al Jazeera)
#8 - Conan O'Brien (Conaco)
#53 - Chief Almir of the Surui (Surui Amazon Tribe)
#61 - Nnaemeka Ikegwuonu (Smallholders Foundation)
#82 - Jan Chipcase (Frog Design) - great photos
#87 - Michelle Khine (Shrink Nanotechnologies)
