Social Networking in the Wild - (USA)
Yesterday, I did something that suggested to me that we are at an important tipping point in the psychology of Web 2.0 adoption. Within an hour of hearing the news of Facebook acquiring Friendfeed, I signed up for the latter, using my Facebook login info. I’d known for a year that Friendfeed is a great dashboard service that integrates your social media presence, but I had not joined. Apparently I wasn’t alone. Friendfeed was at one point described by TechCrunch (I think) as ‘a great service nob

Iranian Law: An Eye For An Eye (Literally) - (USA)
By Andrew L. Jaffee, netwmd.com Iran is one of the world’s nations which implements Sharia, Islamic law: “At the devout end of the spectrum [is] the Islamic Republic of Iran, where mullahs are the ultimate authority…” This “Islamic Republic” is well-known for its “serious human [rights] violations.” One of Iran’s latest legal rulings demonstrates its government’s Stone Age attitude towards law: A court in Iran has ruled that a man who blinded a woman with acid after she spurned his marriage p

Some of these were on the twitter (@personanondata) this week. The NYTimes looks at digital content in schools and recognise it is going to come faster to college level than school.

The Man Who Sold Coals to Newcastle - (USA)
In the modern world it is often said that the accumulation of knowledge is everything. That to get on in life, to be a success in any chosen field, one needs a good education. As a general rule that is an accurate statement; but history has repeatedly illustrated that this not always the case. That there will always be someone, somewhere, with little or no academic skills, who will prove that the opposite can also be true. Such was the example set by the most unlikely 18th century entreprene

Human Organ Trafficker Did Business For Way Too Long - (USA)
By Emily Witt, ProPublica The arrest of Levy Izhak Rosenbaum, the Brooklyn resident charged last month with acting as a “matchmaker” for buyers and sellers of human organs, spotlights the issue of live donor organ trafficking in the United States. It also raises a question: How could Rosenbaum ply his trade for as long as a decade, according to statements in the criminal complaint filed against him, without being caught? The 1984 National Organ Transplantation Act states clearly that the b

localism and free trade - (USA)
N athan has returned to blogging with quite a bloggy manifesto on some of my favorite topics – namely, localism, capitalism, and the struggle between free trade and the cultural side-effects of a consumerist, corporatist society. It’s a long piece, and I’m not sure where to draw out bits from exactly (just read the whole thing). Suffice to say, Nathan struggles with much of what I struggled with in the early months of this blog. I dabbled a bit in distributism; pondered the ill-effects of

Obama's economic program, American jobs and the myth of the balanced budget - (USA)
If we were a bank, the government would give us big bucks I don't know if there is any scrutiny being applied to the business press that would compare to that being done on the main news stories by Eric Boehlert, Eric Alterman and the other folks at Media Matters. Bob "the Daily Howler" Somerby is universally regarded as "incomparable", so by definition nothing "compares" to him.

Round numbers rule at U.K. retailers - (USA)
Over the past year, U.K. grocers have been swapping their 99-pence price tags for round-pound sales. A report from trade magazine the Grocer found that the four big supermarkets—Asda, Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury’s—increased the number of whole-pound promotional price tags by 150 percent in the past year. Tesco stores even feature a designated “pound shop.” As noted in a BBC story , the 99p price tag has long been used as a sales tool to convey value, the theory being that when the brain se
