For weekend reading if you have not already read this.

“But there is one compensating advantage for the people who escape the old system: when the ecosystem stops rewarding complexity, it is the people who figure out how to work simply in the present, rather than the people who mastered the complexities of the past, who get to say what happens in the future.”

    Thanks much for the writing about Clay Shirky's article and blog. I wandered on over to have a look. At first I thought it would just be a rehash of the old technological singularity idea, but it was much better than that. Then I went through the rest of his blog and read some more articles. He really showcases the virtues of quality over quantity and the meaning of intelligent content! What a good writer he is!

    I'm happy I found your Foursquare article a few months ago. I've learned quite a bit by stopping back here since then.
