David Weinberger’s book Everything Is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder is really amazing. It follows on the footsteps of Tom Friedman’s The World Is Flat and Chris Anderson’s The Long Tail.
This book presents an interesting look at the digital data we have access to via the internet and how the distribution of data will forever change business, education and society.

Pretty typical of many of today’s performing arts that must compete with consumers who have many more choices.
