A quick link before I head off for a week's vacation: In the new issue of Time, Justin Fox looks at peer production, Yochai Benkler, and the Benkler-Carr wager. Fox comments further on his blog.
Advertisement: Are you ready for "The Big Switch"? Nicholas Carr's new book "is the best read so far about the significance of the shift to cloud computing," says the Financial Times. The Independent says it's "lucid and mind-boggling." Order now from Amazon.com.

Hey Carr,
Not to ruin your vacation but I thought you'd want to know that Ed Dickman just died.
Peace & Love & Disapproval,
Condo
