Neil Pasricha didn’t know his tiny idea would blow up into an online sensation – and two books. But that’s what happened when he launched 1000awesomethings.com. Readers loved his daily blog citing everyday stuff that qualifies as awesome – the smell of Play-Doh, for example. He spun the blog into two books, The Book Of Awesome and The Book Of (Even More) Awesome, now in paper ($16, Berkley/Penguin). Thing is, nothing lasts forever. He said he’d blog daily for 1,000 days, and the last blog goes up today (Thursday, April 19). For a Q&A with Pasricha, go to nowtoronto.com/books.
