  1. @jny2 Yes - that's true. Goog is opaque; the subject poorly understood. And I suppose it's possible he's been consistently misleading.
  2. @jny2 @jayrosen_nyu @jeffjarvis One of us should check: Hasn't Murdoch made remarks about Goog's bots and readers that were odd in the past?
  3. @jayrosen_nyu @jeffjarvis @scottros We're all speculating. But Murdoch's remarks have the ring of cluelessness to this editor's ears.
  4. Reviews of Blake Bailey's biography of the drunken, closeted Cheever are efficient machines for evoking blank despair: http://bit.ly/2TS9Wp
  5. While I prefer @nybooks, the London Review of Books has the most modern and social site of all the literary journals: www.lrb.co.uk
  6. I can't take it. Someone please tell @dailydish 's Twitter ventriloquist that the service has a 140 character limit *including* the URLs.
  7. Google's Eric Schmidt recently visited Cambridge, where he talked about the future of his company's products. http://bit.ly/qx8z
  8. Just finished editing a review - witty, informative, and feminist - by Emily Gould of the matching algorithms in match.com. Read it in Jan.
  9. My management responsibilities are now so extensive, and the meetings I take so continuous, a day of uninterrupted editing is a real treat.
  10. A beautiful day in Boston, the sun dappled on Commonwealth Ave mall outside my drawing room windows, editing stories for Technology Review.
  11. Looking at houses to purchase in Cambridge. This is an admission that I do, in fact, live in the Boston area.
  12. @dailydish Dude! For God's sake! Twitter has a 140-character limit, *including* the shortened URL. No one can read these tweets.
  13. The legendary Stewart Brand recommends Tech Review as "the best of many publications that track new technologies." http://bit.ly/4vcD4S
  14. Would someone please tell the functionary who writes @dailydish 's tweets, that Twitter has a 140-character limit?
  15. Nanowire anodes could let lithium-ion batteries run twice as long: http://bit.ly/1Sswzb
  16. Join MIT Entrepreneurial Review, the new-student run publication about innovation! <http://bit.ly/2Zsq3L
  17. Steve Pincus has a new, internationalist theory about the Glorious Revolution. And very big boots. http://bit.ly/40IpHj via Patrick Viera.
  18. Our cyborg successors seem a little closer. A battery-free, implantable neural sensor: http://bit.ly/LWp3n
  19. This morning, walking Ferdinando on the Commonwealth Ave mall, he was like a small ship breasting the pillows of the piled Autumn leaves.
  20. @cloverfoodtruck The white miso gave mouth-feel; the onions, brightness; the mushrooms, meatiness. The seaweed lent their otherwordly tang.
