...and to put John Hagel and John Seely Brown on retainer to help explain how people really read on their Blackberry.
(Read about Murdoch's "I read this critical email on my Blackberry, so hey how could I have read it all the way through?" excuse.)

About Me
I'm a futurist based in Silicon Valley, California, an Associate Fellow at Oxford University's Saïd Business School, and a visiting scholar in Stanford's HPST program. I spent the spring of 2011 at Microsoft Research Cambridge, working in the Socio-Digital Systems group on contemplative computing. I wanted to figure out how to design information technologies and user experiences that promote concentration and deep focused thinking, rather than distract you, fracture your attention, and make you feel dumb. You can read about it on my Contemplative Computing Blog.
