- The Old Solutions Have Become the New Problems - BusinessWeek: Shoshana Zuboff - "I spent a quarter-centur y as a professor at the Harvard Business School, including 15 years teaching in the MBA program. I have come to believe that much of what my colleagues and I taught has caused real suffering, suppressed wealth creation, destabilized the world economy, and accelerated the demise of the 20th century capitalism in which the U.S. played the leading role" - eroding margins and a focus on cost-cutting, the HBS "taught them how: outsourcing, off-shoring, downsizing, reengineering& quot; - seek collaboration not creative accounting (that creates nothing but distrust)

- The evolutionary origin of depression: Mild and bitter | The Economist: Mild depressive symptoms can therefore be seen as a natural part of dealing with failure in young adulthood.

- ?My heart?s in Accra » Tim O?Reilly on Government 2.0: "Somehow, Tim says, we got lost and turned to ?vending machine government?, a model where we put in taxes and take out services. Can we undo this, and build government that enables four types of interaction: - Government to citizen - providing services and information to citizens - Citizen to government - citizens report on probelms that need government assistance - Citizen to citizen - not every problem needs to be solved by government - Government to government - we need better cooperation within government agencies. Tim suggests that there are some lessons from the technology space that could be useful in building Government 2.0. ... government needs to be a vehicle for collective action, a convener first, and a problem-solver second. ... Fixing complex problems requires figuring out what government needs to do, what private entites can do and what coordinated citizens can do. If we build systems that allow all these behaviors, we?ll see ... positive change through Government 2.0."
