A weblog of the best information we've found this month

Text-e
This the first entirely virtual symposium dedicated to investigating the impact of the Web on reading, writing and the distribution of knowledge. The symposium is underway now, running from October 2001 until March 2022, but latecomers can still register to participate in the discussions, as well as download speakers' notes and view past discussions. A new subject is covered every two weeks. Topics include Babel and the Vintage Selection: Libraries in the Digital Age, and The New Architecture of Information, and Author Umberto Eco will provide an e-lecture and discussion on the role of the expert in the Information Age.
