Institute for the Future of the Book
Some of the folks behind some of this "open book" business.
- - By Dan O'Reilly-Rowe
- We're a small think-and-do tank investigating the evolution of intellectual discourse as it shifts from printed pages to networked screens.
The Googlization of Everything
Siva Vaidhyanathan's blog is designed to act as a public forum for his research into Google.
- - By Dan O'Reilly-Rowe
- This blog, the result of a collaboration between myself and the Institute for the Future of the Book, is dedicated to exploring the process of writing a critical interpretation of the actions and intentions behind the cultural behemoth that is Google, Inc. The book will answer three key questions: What does the world look like through the lens of Google?; How is Google's ubiquity affecting the production and dissemination of knowledge?; and how has the corporation altered the rules and practices that govern other companies, institutions, and states?
Another example of an open book project. Ken Wark is one scary smart dude.

- Together with the Institute for the Future of the Book I produced this website as a way to think about games. We released Version 1.1 back in 2006. Based on the many thoughtful and careful comments people made on it, I revised Gamer Theory and came up with Version 2.0, which is available here. Comments on Version 1.1 are now closed, but we welcome comments and discussion here at Version 2.0. I will probably not produce a Version 3.0 of this book.
