The Relevance of Data

Guy Kawasaki and Seth Godin have a beautiful conversation over on Guy's blog. This caught my eye:

"Question: Why don’t you check your Technorati ranking?

Answer: Because the data won’t change my actions. Getting data for no good reason just drives you crazy. The secret is to get very flexible in the face of data you care about—changing your x every time you see y changes—and incredibly inflexible in the face of data you don’t care about."

Simple articulation, great meaning!! The whole conversation is worth a read...
