I think this is a great article and an awesome website in general. I've always been a big gamer and interested in videogame design but I haven't found many accessible essays for non developers. I'll be following the website and new essays from now on!
If anyone knows other websites or essays like this - that are an in-depth look at videogame design - I would love to know about them.
I had the same problem with Chrome. A confirmation screen would be cool. The newsletter and sample chapter are both great though, definitely worth checking out.
This is fantastic. I have used the same system for the last 4 years and it is the single most useful productivity "hack" in my life. The only change I use is that my reference emails usually go into Evernote.
Either way, it will be awkward, and checking in with someone to see if they can be introduced just adds another e-mail to the chain.
Maybe I'm just overly choosy with who I introduce, but I have never had someone not respond, or say "No, I don't want to be introduced to that person." It just always seems to add an unnecessary step.
