Stuff I’d read right now if I wasn’t about to watch Baby Mama….

From Bookforum: The first chapter from Market Rebels: How Activists Make or Break Radical Innovations by Hayagreeva Rao.

Edge.org’s annual question for 2009 - What will change everything?

IT Conversations interview with Jeff Jonas - IBM Entity Analytics.

From National Journal by way of Bookforum - Hacking the Hill: How the Chinese — or someone — hacked into House of Representatives computers in 2006.

From BusinessWeek via Planetizen - Bringing Broadband to the Urban Poor.

Also, if your NetFlix queue is not piling up, check our the Contexts podcast where Jon Smajda and I talk about blogging in academia.
