The Benefits of Distraction and Overstimulation -- New York Magazine

As we become more skilled at the 21st-century task Meyer calls “flitting,” the wiring of the brain will inevitably change to deal more efficiently with more information. The neuroscientist Gary Small speculates that the human brain might be changing faster today than it has since the prehistoric discovery of tools. Research suggests we’re already picking up new skills: better peripheral vision, the ability to sift information rapidly.

Kids growing up now might have an associative genius we don’t—a sense of the way ten projects all dovetail into something totally new. They might be able to engage in seeming contradictions: mindful web-surfing, mindful Twittering. Maybe, in flights of irresponsible responsibility, they’ll even manage to attain the paradoxical, Zenlike state of focused distraction.

Commercials you actually want to see - Jan. 25, 2008

Hyundai Motor Co (HYMT.F), said last week it was reviewing its decision to advertise in the Super Bowl based on signs that consumers are becoming more wary of spending. The company ultimately decided to stick with its plans and will have two spots during the game.
But athletic apparel maker Under Armour Inc. (UA) upset investors last week when it announced a new brand campaign -- including a 60-second Super Bowl spot -- and said that marketing expenses will represent as much as 13 percent of the company's 2008 net revenues.
This prompted a Wachovia Capital Markets analyst to downgrade the stock due to concerns that the company was spending too much during a time of economic weakness. Shares tanked 24 percent over the next two days before more favorable research reports from Goldman Sachs and Susquehanna helped the stock recover.

An anonymous reader writes "CNN writes about a $50,000 machine that can print books on demand. It can print up to 550 pages and put a binding on the book in seven minutes. It will be debuting in a select number of U.S. libraries in 2007. The machine is the 'output' end of a service called On Demand Books, which is also just debuting. From the article: 'Some 2.5 million books are now available - about one million in English and no longer under copyright protection. On Demand accesses the volumes through Google and the Open Content Alliance, among other sources. [Co-founder Dane] Neller predicts that within about five years On Demand Books will be able to reproduce every volume ever printed.'"

Wal-Mart's feisty new British rival. - By Daniel Gross - Slate Magazine
-
Eduardo Castro-Wright, chief operating officer of Wal-Mart Stores in the United States, told the Financial Times last November that it is "looking at the Neighborhood Market format as a vehicle … to serve customers who need convenience for a key reason for shopping at Wal-Mart." This may prove to be Tesco's real edge. Wal-Mart has always competed on price, price, and price—not convenience. Wal-Mart pretty well controls the market of people who have to shop there to save money.
-
First, history. Tesco dominates the British grocery market, with a 30 percent market share. It has crushed Wal-Mart's British unit, Asda, which holds only a 17 percent market share.

Wal-Mart has not commented on any plans for a new format, but industry observers point out that the company’s U.K. branch, Asda, is a major competitor to Tesco. Also, former Tesco executive David Wild has recently been named Wal-Mart’s senior vice president of new business development for the company’s U.S. division, according to Progressive Grocer. Before joining Wal-Mart in 2004, Wild helped with the expansion of Tesco’s convenience store operations.
Adobe Apollo - On A Collision Course With Web Browsers
-
The difference is that applications
that run on Apollo can work in an offline mode, while you are not connected to the internet.
The browser can't yet do this, however Firefox
3 is slated to have offline functionality and IE surely won't be far behind. -
Will users download Apollo, like they have done for Java?
But technology is not going to be the determining factor. Because if users really resonate with
Apollo, download it and start running applications, the technology issues will be secondary.
The big question then is: will ordinary users download a runtime? Well this is not so simple, although certainly
many people have downloaded Java in order to run Java-based web apps. Arguably, there is no compelling reason right now to
download - but surely Adobe has a plan for distribution. Could it be bundling it with
Acrobat? - 2 more annotations...
