Hackathons and hack culture

In this episode we worry about digital publishing not moving forward to the future:

• How do we get ebooks and the like moving forward without wholesale destruction?
• We also respond to that Hackathon article. No, not that one. No, not that one either. This one.
• When do hackathons work?
• This is the episode where we sing the praises of React. No, not that react. The other one.
• Singing the praises of Claire Reddington.
• Don’t devalue work and don’t overvalue work.
• We talk about how big publishing’s value proposition has been called into question.
• On authors as the actual providers of value.
• Singing the praises of Canelo.
