I would highly recommend looking at the doug engelbart institute website[1]. There are a lot of very interesting ideas both about technology and about human behavior.

I started a project[2] to try and understand these ideas and it has been a very enlightening journey.

Also a better formatted version of Augmenting Human Intellect can be found here[3]

Off topic: it's really strange to arrive a page only containing "content" and no ads, navigation etc. this is no normal anymore :(


But it's still more http://motherfuckingwebsite.com/ than http://bettermotherfuckingwebsite.com/ it doesn't take much to get a pleasant design for reading.


I remember looking up runit[1] the other day, and going "I can trust this software" based off the spartan HTML.

Really? Its like the web isn't intuitive anymore which is sad really :(
