Facing the Screen Dilemma: Young children, technology and early education"
A new report “Facing the Screen Dilemma: Young children, technology and early education”, is a frank condemnation of the impact of electronics on the mental and physical health of little kids.
Couched in the upbeat tones of early-childhood educators, the authors conclude, with certainty, that electronics of all kinds need to be introduced very carefully, and only as kids get older.
The late Alan Watts was a Taoist philosopher living in the states from the UK originally. Smart guy.

Ive gone back to Uni! Well kind of - Udacity actually. Loving my first course on How to Build a Startup. Steve Blank knows his stuff and sounds like Vicini from the Princess Bride! Plus i get to pause my lecturer and get a cup of tea - how many times did you want to do THAT at uni!?
Fossil fuel industry the new slave masters
Just back from watching Lincoln at the Bondi Beach Open Air Cinema (very nice job guys) - great movie, solid performances and all that - but really what a TIME TO HAVE BEEN ALIVE. To have had a chance to shape history like those congressmen that voted against their party line.
Reminded me that we live in equally momentous times, they abolished slavery as we must abolish our own slavery - this time to fossil fuels and their masters. There are fascinating parallels to slavery and our use of fossiel fuels too. Once slaves did the dirty work we now use oil for.
Our lives are not our own,
We are bound to others,
Past and present,
And with each crime, and every kindness,
We birth our future.

Despite what some may think, the true art of marketing is saying the least possible words to convey the most possible information. Its not just about the limited space in an ad, a page or a screen. Its about respecting the limitations of the space in someone’s brain that they’re willing to give up to you. Their attention.
