Weekend Reading

This week’s links:

  • 4 Tech Trends for SMBs: from Information Week. On cloud, mobile and social.
  • William Buckley book review: from New York Times Books. On the rise of American Conservatism.
  • TIME’s Person of the Year 2011: The Protestor. “”Massive and effective street protest” was a global oxymoron until — suddenly, shockingly — starting exactly a year ago, it became the defining trope of our times. And the protester once again became a maker of history.”
  • Seeking a new set of political leaders: by Niranjan Rajadhyaksha. “There is a new lot of princelings waiting in the wings, but what most of them are lacking is solid administrative experience.”
