Paul Nathanail on Hard cases, maybe good law E-book readers: will secondary features win consumers’ hearts or leave them cold? \| Crunchgear \| TechCrunch Right now is a bit of a weird period in e-reader history. The Kindle cemented e-readers in the consumer headspace, catapulting them from weirdo alternative technology to mainstream gadget. That’s what the iPad threatens to do with tablets. Does the success of an e-reader depend on “bonus” features like second screens? Simon Singh: This is goodbye \| Science \| guardian.co.uk Being sued for libel is not only ruinously expensive, writes Simon Singh, it takes over your whole life. Which is why this will be his last column Who gets your passwords when you die? \| The Gazette (Montreal) Montrealer Adele McAlear has been studying the issue of digital legacy for several years. She says some websites have cropped up to offer services as digital executors, but few people seem to take advantage of them. Several lawyers have also added digital assets to the process of estate planning. Macmillan Stacking Sandbags Against e-Book Flood \| GigaOM Mathew Ingram explains the new agency book pricing model being adopted my publisher Macmillan and its background. Macmillan CEO John Sargent on the agency model, availability and price \| Macmillan blog Starting at the end of March, we will move from the “retail model” of selling e-books (publishers sell to retailers, who then sell to readers at a price that the retailer determines) to the “agency model” (publishers set the price, and retailers take a commission on the sale to readers). Shuuuuttt Uppp! Why Your Company Needs 'Quiet Time' \| The View from Harvard Business \| BNET Many companies are now going back to the days of installing “quiet time,” periods when workers are sequestered from interruptions to focus on the work at hand. NYRblog - Tony Judt on Identity "We are entering, I suspect, upon a time of troubles. It is not just the terrorists, the bankers, and the climate that are going to wreak havoc with our sense of security and stability. Globalization itself—the “flat” earth of so many irenic fantasies—will be a source of fear and uncertainty to billions of people who will turn to their leaders for protection. “Identities” will grow mean and tight, as the indigent and the uprooted beat upon the ever-rising walls of gated communities from Delhi to Dallas." Good and Boring \| Op-Ed Columnist \| NYTimes.com Iceland's meltdown made headlines; the remarkable stability of Canada's banks, not so much.Yet as the world’s attention shifts from financial rescue to financial reform, the quiet success stories deserve at least as much attention as the spectacular failures. We need to learn from those countries that evidently did it right. And leading that list is our neighbor to the north. Right now, Canada is a very important role model. Fraser Speirs - Blog - Future Shock What you're seeing in the industry's reaction to the iPad is nothing less than future shock. For years we've all held to the belief that computing had to be made simpler for the 'average person'. I find it difficult to come to any conclusion other than that we have totally failed in this effort. The iPad and publishers: A survey of early reaction - O'Reilly Radar the device is clearly built for media consumption. Movies, music, books, news -- the bread and butter content that keeps iTunes humming. That's good for Apple, obviously, but it also creates an interesting opportunity for publishers. They've got a new distribution mechanism and a new canvas.
