    Jonah Lehrer's argument sounds a bit like it was re-purposed from Goldsmith...uncreatively?

    The Obama administration is banning hundreds of thousands of federal employees from calling up the WikiLeaks site on government computers because the leaked material is still formally regarded as classified. The Library of Congress tonight joined the education department, the commerce department and other government agencies in confirming that the ban is in place.

    Publication of Simon Morris's retyping of Kerouac's On The Road. I find this interesting because I wonder how Goldsmith's discussion of Morris's retyping of the text onto the blog might change now that the text is found within yet another context (the published, printed book). I'm considering buying a copy. . .

    I thought this might be interesting, especially as we head toward the section of the class where we discuss games. Here is an excerpt from the default blurb: "Victor has worked on experimental UI concepts at Apple and also created the interactive data graphics for Al Gore's book, Our Choice. In the talk Victor showed off a demo of a great real-time game editor that makes your existing coding tools look primitive at best."

    "Adopted by the NCTE Executive Committee, February 15, 2008 Literacy has always been a collection of cultural and communicative practices shared among members of particular groups. As society and technology change, so does literacy. Because technology has increased the intensity and complexity of literate environments, the twenty-first century demands that a literate person possess a wide range of abilities and competencies, many literacies."

  • The problem has been finding it.
  • distribution in print has been limited and sluggish, leaving bookstores deprived of copies.
  • more than 250,000 copies
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • has come from ever-discreet e-book downloads, which have propelled “Fifty Shades of Grey” to No. 1 on the New York Times e-book fiction best-seller list
  • “The people who are reading this are not only people who read romance. It’s gone much broader than that.”
  • “We’re making a statement that this is bigger than one genre,”
  • No. 3 position on Amazon’s best-seller list.
  • “It’s taboo for women to admit that they watch pornography, but for some reason it’s O.K. to admit that they’re reading this book.”
  • habit of printing lengthy contracts and e-mail exchanges between characters in the text.
  • Bonnie Thibodeau on 11 Mar 12
     
    What strikes me as especially interesting about this book review is that it emphasizes and leads with the buzz surrounding its predominantly digital publication instead of the controversy about the popularity of hardcore erotic literature for women.

    A writer for Facebook (wow, that seems like such a weird way of putting it) explains the rationale behind the site's language and features such as the "Like" button. We can connect this to the patterns in Designing Social Interfaces.
