I would agree that speaking relates to action whereas writing relates to contemplation and creation.

I don't believe it's one or the other but rather both being part of the cycle that enables us to transform our reality.

Our company recently started using alternative domain handles such as .nu, .es, .se and so on in response to one of my rants. It is the interests behind legislation that continue to halt innovation. We could evolve much faster if we had brighter minds leading our country. In the meantime we decided to contribute by not using .com domains.

I believe URLs are bound to disappear.

We completely agree with the UN's statement: “no single government should have a pre-eminent role in relation to international internet governance.”

Where is this?

This article would've made my life easier two years ago while I spent an entire day discussing the matter with my ex-Fiancée.

I'm quadrilingual and recently I had an interesting discussion with a friend of mine about other types of languages such as programming languages. I do think that these count as a form of expression and ultimately improve the brain's executive function as the article states. Furthermore, they develop critical and logic thinking.

This is something that needs to happen. I wish ProFounder hadn't close, however it's a clear example of how our institutions and legal frameworks are not evolving fast enough to foster creativity and innovation. I'm still waiting for Government 2.0...

Signed.

This definitely blurs the line between calling an app native or web based, at least from a business-marketing standpoint. However, far more interesting is to see the waves of innovation that APIs have created. APIs are becoming the personality of computer systems in the sense that they allow interaction and shielding from the outside world. As long as developers know how to interact with a system's personality they can now build just about anything. Furthermore, experience is becoming the new IP so I believe that such technologies will bring more and more experience innovation by providing easier and faster paths for high-level programmers to contribute to the ecosystem.
