  1. He accomplished 50 of the things he claimed everyone should do.
  2. Classic issue with Neil McLaughlin taking the correct position on a complicated issues. I think faculty should be strongly encouraged to teach their books. And they should donate any royalties that stem from that practice to charity.
  3. I want to buy all of these!

  5. Via Marcel. Interesting looking book by an early Google Brand/Marketing director.
  6. A plugin plugin that does cool data analysis.
  7. Books looks great. And she's a sociologist in Boston!
  8. This review was bad but should have been worse IMHO. '“Why would anyone go to such lengths to get hold of a memoir whose essential purpose was to entertain?” (Oh, perhaps because people don’t find it very entertaining to be depicted as charlatans.) Such faux naïveté is unbecoming in someone as savvy as Lyons is, and makes him seem, in the end, an unreliable narrator of his own story.'
  9. Good project by some good people.
  10. New publishing imprint from a major publisher to use only CC works available for free on the Internet at the time of publication. Hal Abelson is on the advisory board.
  11. Dan Lyon's employer/publisher pans his book! Sounds real bad.

  12. Looks interesting and reminds me a bunch of Andy Abbott's book on Methods of Discovery. I should go back and read that one again...
  13. Social "reading" community/application.
  14. This guy gave away a copy of Ted Nelson's literary machines. Horrible news he's gonna be gone.
  15. Keeping track of physical items is hard,
  16. If anyone wants to be my best friend, they can send me this book. It's super rare and it just went onsale.
  17. Profile of my advisor in the NYT. Why is it in the arts section? Not quite sure.
  18. Ouch. This is a bad book review: "The empirical information he provides is perfunctory at best. His command of Marxism seems limited. His historical reach extends to his own earlier works. His vast theoretical apparatus is jimmy-rigged and empty. The graphs are inane, the writing atrocious. To call this book dull as dish water maligns dish water."
  19. Very interesting information on how Amazon is storing files for the Kindle.
  20. It's not what you think...
