Should exist
October 24, 2003 | Arts & Culture
Now that I'm totally addicted to the iTunes music store, what should exist is the ability to buy a PDF of the sheet music of any song in the catalog.
I just re-discovered "Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy" (Elton John). What a seminal musical experience for me. Brings back the memories, I tell 'ya. And now I want to play it on my guitar.
I found the album via the "Celebrity Playlists" feature. Poked around, looked at a few, and then Sheryl Crow had this song listed I said, "Oh, yeah. Is that on here?" And indeed, moments later I had bought it. Listening to it now. Awesome customer experience.

Save The World has a great pointer to work by Charles Handy, one of the first management gurus, who's been talking about "villages of like-minded individuals, bound by a common purpose and managed by reciprocal trust" for a long time now. Great thinker; important today.

The Happy Tutor was kind enough to send an "out of the blog" notice when his work got busy. I had no such courtesy. However, that's the situation.
