un dos sitios máis modélicos
Un portal de libros e de actualidade cultural brasileira. É un dos sitios máis modélicos de información cultural na rede que visito, mestura a promoción de novidades con ensaios e forums. Moi interesante.

The Super Network
These days, the company [Yahoo!] has two distinct faces. In Silicon Valley, a band of happy hackers, the descendants of [Jerry] Yang and [David] Filo, work to out-engineer the guys up the street at Google. In Santa Monica, 350 miles south, the Yahoo! Media Group has slapped down $100 million for a 10-year lease on the 230,000-square-foot Yahoo! Center, formerly MGM's home. The office park covers an entire city block, squatting amid the offices of HBO, MTV, Lion's Gate, and Universal. The company won't comment on its mission in LA, but in an internal email making rounds on the Web, Yahoo! COO Dan Rosensweig says, "The growing consumer demand for compelling content on the Internet and the proliferation of broadband is an exciting opportunity. We need to enhance our presence in the entertainment capital of the world."

Do bom
Auto-intitulado "um programa sem ensaio", Claro que é Rock tem tudo para se firmar como "o programa de rock da TV brasileira". Com a programação nas rádios cada vez mais desinteressante, a MTV cada vez mais comportamento e a TV aberta cada vez mais burra, o Multishow começa a saltar uns pontos acima com a - também cada vez mais - melhor faixa de TV por assinatura.

Of Proteges and Pitfalls
Ah, mentoring. No one disputes its value, but its pitfalls are legion. Since the 1970s, studies have repeatedly demonstrated that mentoring is the single most valuable ingredient in a successful career for both men and women. So now everybody wants a mentor. But mentors aren't fairy godmothers; they can't and shouldn't be expected to make all your dreams come true. For women and minorities in particular, the overexpectation problem is acute. Female leaders are often expected to fill the roles of mother, sister, girlfriend, and activist - and do their day job. Minority executives speak of a responsibility to "lift as we rise," to improve conditions for the whole group while carving out their own careers. Men are often wary of mentoring women, fearing gossip and innuendo, but they also don't want to appear sexist. Considered together, it's inevitable that mentoring will consistently create issues of trust and confidence. So how can you negotiate these effectively? What should you be thinking about when initiating a relationship with a mentor, and what should you expect? What are the rules of the mentoring game?

The Man Behind the Microchip
Perhaps that was his true genius. One could argue that [Robert] Noyce was less important for pioneering the chip than for pioneering the psychology of Silicon Valley. Pick any cliché of today's high-tech C.E.O. behavior, and Noyce forged the template. He bought and flew his own planes; played the extreme sports of his age; handed out employee stock options while fighting unions; relished his instant wealth, yet continually nursed a Puritanical suspicion that nobody could ever deserve that much bling. His follow-your-bliss management style set the tone for many Valley success stories, most notably today's young founders of Google, who encourage their employees to tinker with projects that might seem simply goofy. As Noyce realized, it is those flights of fancy that leave the world a permanently different place, no matter who gets credit for that.

The Saxophone Is Silent
Michael Brecker, one of jazz's most influential tenor saxophonists over the last quarter-century, has been forced to stop performing by blood and bone marrow disease and is searching for a stranger to save his life.(...) Mr. Brecker, 56, was recently found to have myelodysplastic syndrome, a form of cancer in which the bone marrow stops producing enough healthy blood cells. His doctors say he needs a blood stem cell and bone marrow transplant, a harrowing procedure that will be possible only if Mr. Brecker finds a stem cell donor with a specific enough genetic match for his tissue type. So far, they have been unable to find one from the millions of people on an international registry for bone marrow donors.
Corey Kilgannon, também no The New York Times (porque, depois dessa, eu até fui ouvir o Michael Brecker...).

Digital Music's Angel
Apple commands an estimated 75 percent of digital music sales, and roughly 80 percent of sales of MP3 players, with its market-leading iPod. While many still admire Mr. [Steve] Jobs's touch - iTunes quickly established a market for paid downloads after the industry wasted years on misfires - he also inspires enmity or jealousy from others in the industry, which is back in a slump after a modest rebound last year.

BookCrossing.com
Bookworms are being invited to join what is described as the world's first online cooperative library, My Book Your Book (...). The site allows people to borrow from complete strangers such works as Bruce Chatwin's In Patagonia and Yann Martel's Life of Pi. The website has ambitions to introduce thousands of paperbacks into its catalogue.

Médias
La technologie met à portée de tout citoyen la capacité de recueillir et, surtout, de publier, c'est-à-dire de diffuser largement faits, sons, images ou opinions. Tout le monde devient producteur d'images, tout le monde peut faire connaître sa vision de la réalité. L'information (...), dont les médias avaient le monopole, se banalise, se démocratise, se privatise.
Patrick Sabatier no Libération; continua em Quand M. Tout-le-monde s'improvise reporter e em C'est la perte du monopole des journalistes sur l'information (porque toda a mídia está fazendo a sua lição de casa - e a do Brasil, cadê?).
