11 years later, is Cambridge still the intellectual center of the world? Any other contenders come to mind? Re: http://www.paulgraham.com/cities.html @paulg @TheAnnaGat
As far as I know. Universities are not quite what they used to be, perhaps, but things haven't changed enough to make somewhere else the center.

I'd have 2 open questions about the premise, still (1) do *universities* make a place an intellectual centre or is it rather a combination of industry/academia/politics/publishing (2) up to what degree can *physical* become irrelevant in this case

Cambridge is more than universities. The density of people dedicated to invention and knowledge exists nowhere else. Still the magnet for the reasons you listed 10 years ago.
