Can’t wait to get back to Barcelona next week for more tapas by the beach, cold beer street hustles and swashbuckling house music. SONAR here we come.

New Disclosure track bringing the fire.
Could this be the start of a Garage revival? Oh how I hope so…
Woop woop. Excited to be launching our new iPhone app and mobile site today!
An interesting mathematical insight into why fact based publishers like Bloomberg and the FT can charge for access, but not the Guardian or others geared towards publishing opinions.
In yesterday’s post I ripped on Paywalls a bit. I should elaborate.
Fact-Based Information has value. Its value is often *inversely* proportional to its distribution. (Think: the value of knowing Warren Buffet’s latest trade before and after he announces it to the world).
Influence also has…
Watched the epic ‘Apocalypse Now Redux’ last night, and learnt that Conrad’s book which inspired the film, was in turn inspired by a TS Eliot poem (The Waste Land).
Which strangely parallels the way the soundtrack was by a band whose name ‘The Doors’ was inspired by an Aldous Huxley book, which takes it’s title from a William Blake poem.
Unique, only-links-as-answers, interview with Folkert/Superfamous (behind one of my favorite sites - Butdoesitfloat.com)
The motivations behind Varsity Bookmarking:
1. Contribute to internet-native culture
2. Create an interview format for introverts
3. Extract as much information as possible from the figures I admireYES! We made onto Little big details again :)
