   To be notified of updates. Why in preference to email? Web feeds are typically presented as information streams while email is presented as interpersonal dialogue. Organizing your information streams into an aggregator is clarifying.

   I recently bought his book primarily for its illustrations and was painfully disappointed at the print quality. It was so bad I thought Amazon had sold me a counterfeit so I returned it and ordered directly from the publisher instead, at si
