Robert Hughes at ALA splitter 00
The late, great art and culture critic, Robert Hughes, was the Opening
General Session speaker on June 15, 2002 in Atlanta. His talk, months
after the September 11 attacks continues to resonate. ALA President
John W. Berry in 2002 posts this video, with permission, as a tribute
to our friend and colleague. 'Free Libraries Free Society' was the
title of the talk.

Cloud Time by Rob Coley & Dean Lockwood
This entry is here to congratulate my colleagues Rob Coley and Dean Lockwood for the publication of their book Cloud Time: The Inception of the Future. I should have written something about it months ago, alas I have been too busy.
I have seen two reviews: one from Steven Poole in The Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2012/jul/06/nonfiction-reviews-roundup-steven-poole and one from Alexander Barker from The Oxonian Review http://www.oxonianreview.org/wp/cloud-capitalism/
