Partial Attention

Working on other things, but duly noted:
 
John Seely Brown and Douglas Thomas comment on positive aspects of gamer culture relative to business culture in the Harvard Business review.
 
I don’t have much to say about the Harvard Arts & Sciences faculty’s unanimous decision to build an opt-out repository for research essays. It’s certainly a good sign, but I’m not sure how much direct effect it will have; give it a few months, maybe a few years, and let’s see what happens. I’m still an advocate of true Open Access journals, monographs, and so on — but anything that impresses Dorothea (and again!), Tom, Peter, and David makes me very optimistic indeed.
