blog: Kevin Kelly

Posted on | August 16, 2006 | No Comments

following the links on William Gibson’s blog, I found out about Kevin Kelly – co-founder of Wired magazine and author of various books and articles on technology and economy (‘Out of Control’, ‘New Rules for the New Economy’). I haven’t read anything by Kelly yet, but he seems to be involved in countless interesting projects, of which I want to recommend the following two:

• on his blog Cool Tools, Kelly introduces a field-tested tool each day. Cool Tools isn’t restricted to ’software’-tools, it rather covers handcraft-tools, books, gadgets and practicalities like the Cuban Mop
• True Films, another of Kelly’s blogs, is dedicated to his passion for documentary film. the blog, which is also available as USD 3,- PDF-download, currently holds more than 100 film-reviews.

by the way: similar to Chris Anderson’s ‘Long Tail’, Kelly publicizes the ongoing work on his current book ‘The Technium’ on his blog – think ‘book in progress’.
