Joseph D'Agnese Why Joseph loves this book

I heard about this book from an artist and software creator who said he used Walker's concepts to connect better with his newsletter subscribers and help them guide him into making better products. A key insight is that if you listen carefully and build what your users/fans/customers want that they will reward you by buying it right out of the gate.

This is a revised edition, so Walker is able to provide links to case studies of students of his who built strong online businesses using his techniques. They range from people like real estate developers selling courses to costumiers selling courses on how to create amazing "kits" for historical re-enactors.

Understand that Walker himself is selling a course, but you don't need to buy it to follow the principles in the book. I think it's a valuable for anyone looking to establish new or enhance existing income streams.

Joseph D'Agnese Why Joseph loves this book

I backed the Kickstarter for this nonfiction book, so I got to read it slightly before it was released in fall 2025. The premise is simple: it FEELS as if everything in our world—from the digital tools we use to the websites we access and the products we buy—keep getting worse. Is that true, or is that simply our imagination? The author, Cory Doctorow, explains exactly why products start out great but then become "enshittified" as corporations shift from catering to end users to caring only about their shareholders. Off the top of my head, he presents case studies that include Google, Amazon, Facebook, Uber, Apple, and a host of other well-known brands.

Google search, for example, used to give users a long list of records that they could then click through to find inflation about any topic. It was valuable to end users. Once Google dominated that market and…
