Check out "The Media Lab" by Stuart Brand, founder of the Whole Earth Catalog.
It describes activities at the MIT Media Lab, and talks about the future of
mass-communications. A must-read.

Speaking of Stuart Brand, it's amazing how the Whole Earth catalog/magazine
has evolved. The original was a new concept in publishing. They have really
gotten into computers in a big way. Some of the most state of the art ideas
in the human aspects of compuing are to be found in WE magazine. They have
a very large BBS. It is amazing how the same publication can be into new-age
stuff, back-to-the-land stuff, and computer applications, all blended without
any dissonance. Best of all, they *assume* the reader is computer-literate,
and take computers for granted. Keep up!
