Fear not technology
Two wonderful stories on technology:
Radiohead's distribution revolution enables them to be free of the big music industry machine.
and
With one word a man Twitters his way out of an Egyptian Jail.
Don't fear it - use it for good.

innovation in business
I will give kudos when they are due. Glaxo-Smith Klein hatched a radical idea on marketing its new anti-rotavirus vaccine. (Rotavirus is responsible for the deaths of thousands of newborns and infants due to diarrhea and dehydration). Instead of launching the drug to the more prosperous markets of North America and Europe - they focused their efforts on markets where the virus was taking it's largest toll. Developing countries and countries with limited financial resources.
The vaccine was launched and paid for with grants from The Gates Foundation and pre-orders from the countries where the drug was to be launched. The price was kept down so the margin is low - but since the volume would be high it would cover the cost.
90% of newborns in countries such as Mexico are vaccinated now.
GSK gets a good story to tell and more importantly children are saved.
It is a shame that stories like this are hard to come by. I think that when businesses start thinking about how they can improve their models to consider more than just short-term economic gains we can see real change.

Oryx and Crake
More than anyone needs to know about one of my very favorite books...
Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood who is my very favorite contemporary author.
The official Oryx and Crake website.
and an excellent Guardian UK audio interview with Ms. Atwood on dystopia, good and evil and her thoughts on writing. This is an mp3.

nice news
A surfer saved a dog from drowning in Lake Michigan. The mixed breed pooch was swept off a pier by a wave as his disabled owner watched helplessly. Fortunately a quick thinking surfer swooped the dog up on to his board and rode the pooch safely to shore.

Smart cars coming to SF
Finally!... Smart cars will be arriving early 2008 to the US. I am very excited about this.. There is already huge demand and deposits are already being taken.
I imagine I won't be able to get for at least a year but this will be my next car unless someone comes out with a very cute convertible hybrid or electric car first.
Bay Area drivers get first look at tiny Smart and they like what they see
