What Should We Read Next?
Thought we might try reading something that discusses the digital revolution and its impact on every aspect of our lives - something like
Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations by Clay Shirky
The Long Tail by Chris Anderson
The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google by Nicholas Carr.
Any other ideas/recommendations? Kim

This is an article, but it packs as much info as a book, all links considered. I loved it so much. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/02/magazine/02self-measurement-t.htm...
As for books, how about "DIY U"? -

I've been meaning to read Shirky's book. I also like the idea of reading a really "meaty" article like the Data Driven Life one sent by MariaD.
A few other ideas - I havent read any of these, but here is Library Journal's list of top science-technology books for 2009: http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA6719408.html. -
