She just mentioned a great point that with Facebook, a college student mentioned he couldn’t reinvent himself (my comment: and therefore also experiment and find things he didn’t like) when he arrived at college because his old friends came with him on fb.

OK piece on inventing and publicizing and acting on the invention.  I like this and the next post of the 2nd interview from American Invention on ttbook.org.

Just heard on NPR.  Thought provoking.  Different perspective on certain well-known photos.  Never heard of the guy before, nor the book, but the part of the interview I heard was a good reminder to not take everything you see at face value.
