Blinkist offers non-fictions book summaries that allow you to get key insights from any book in less than 15 minutes. "Blinks are powerful bites of insight from outstanding nonfiction. You can read a blink in less than two minutes..." are intended as a beginning of a self-driven path toward learning, rather than a replacement for reading full books. Blinks are all manually handwritten and can be easily accessed and read on any type of device and screen size. A great example of how skilled curation of existing content can not only provide a useful and in-demand service, but make it sustainable too.

Interesting, digital cliff notes. Found myself reading some of the books entirely after this.

I hate to be a parrot head, but I agree with Robin's insight that this is a neat example of how skilled curation of existing content can provide useful info AND be sustainable too. It also saves YOU time and resources as well. |

"Blinks are powerful bites of insight from outstanding nonfiction. You can read a blink in less than two minutes..."
Each book summary is made up of about eight blinks. These
are intended as a beginning of a self-driven path toward learning, rather than a replacement for reading full books.
Blinks are all manually handwritten and can be easily accessed and read on any type of device and screen size.
