     1. 101 Ways to Save the Internet

         

        (Wired)

         
     2. 101 Ways to Save the Internet
        My question: Is the Internet really as important as the soothsayers have predicted? My gut says 'yes' but at the same time, the hype overshadows too many of the amazing things the Net truly delivers. The tech community needs to shut up for a while, focus on making things work better, and accept the fact that technology is only a tool. When technology is presented at the end product, it always fails. When will people learn?

     1. Blogger's block, collapsing facets and the number 150

         

        (Joi Ito's Web)

         
     2. "The problem with many blogs is that the audience includes so many different communities of people that it collapses the facets of one's identity and requires you to choose a rather shallow facet which becomes your public identity."
        Well, that's the problem with all things on the web and in cyberspace: you can't even take things at face value, you only get to judge at "link value." Google as a way of life.

     1. Rasheed: Teams eye 'dumb and dumber' players

         

        (ESPN.com)

         
     2. Wallace added that teams are drafting high school players because they want athletes who are "dumb and dumber."
        Well, it would hard for anyone to be dumber than Rasheed Wallace. When a guy like him opens his mouth and cries racism, and 'Oh, how the White Man is keeping me down!' when he's earning about $17 million a year, it hurts the real fight against racial bigotry. All the media cover his outburst, and regular white folks are wondering: but the guy's a millionaire, what else do we have to give these uppity n*ggers! His outburst effectively lets them off the hook, and makes it harder to honestly address the racial divide, which is growing, people. His message may have some truth to it, but the way he presented it killed the entire argument in the first place. He should just shut up for his good, and ours.
