“The Social Life of Information” by Brown and Duguid

Originally published by "dbarker" on 2002-09-17 08:28:00Z

A great, great book about technology and where it’s leading the human race. Can everything in the world be boiled down to binary information? Is there still a place for human interaction in the transmission of information? Does information have another life beyond computers? A…social life?
