Giving Up on Environmentalism « how to save the world
I do think that climate change campaigners… should be more upfront about what you’re trying to ‘save.’ It’s not the world. It’s not humanity either, which I’d bet will survive whatever comes in some form or another, though perhaps with drastically reduced numbers and no broadband connection. No, what you’re trying to save, it seems to me, is the world you have grown used to… a civilisation so extensive and powerful that it [has] energetically wiped out much non-human life in order to feed its ever-advancing appetites…‘Sustainability’ is, as far as I can see, a project designed to keep this culture — this lifestyle — afloat…

The UX of Language - Alex Sexton
The importance of expressing application developed messages in natural sounding English.

This is the type of language that we’ve all come to expect out of the web. It gets the point across, but I’d argue that it’s not very personal or natural. That may not matter in this particular example, but consider building anything social. Identity is becoming a huge part of the next wave of apps. If you want to have any chance at personalization or identity, then the following isn’t going to cut it: Alex added 5 friend(s) to their group on March 19, 2012

Content Strategists: What Do They Do?
The title may also be a misnomer. The content strategist can be called on for more than strategy, getting their hands dirty with the entire content lifecycle: analyzing, planning, writing, editing, distributing, managing and monitoring content. For that matter, they must concern themselves with more than content (in the strictest definition) too: information architecture, delivery technologies, and anything else that affects the impact of content falls under the purview of the conscientious content strategist.

What's behind the scorn for the Wall Street protests? - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com
Some of this anti-protest posturing is just the all-too-familiar New-Republic-ish eagerness to prove one's own Seriousness by castigating anyone to the left of, say, Dianne Feinstein or John Kerry; for such individuals, multi-term, pro-Iraq-War Democratic Senator-plutocrats define the outermost left-wing limit of respectability. Also at play is the jingoistic notion that street protests are valid in Those Bad Countries but not in free, democratic America.

The Decline of the West | Mother Jones
More than 10 years ago, before 9/11, Goldman Sachs was predicting that the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China) would make the world economy's top ten—but not until 2040. Skip a decade and the Chinese economy already has the number two spot all to itself, Brazil is number seven, India 10, and even Russia is creeping closer. In purchasing power parity, or PPP, things look even better. There, China is in second place, India is now fourth, Russia sixth, and Brazil seventh.
