Ethan Zuckerman has a brilliant review and consideration of Cass Sunstein’s Infotopia, a book I have not read but now look forward to even more. Sunstein’s previous book, Republic.com, gained notoriety for arguing that the Net tends to polarize opinions. (I am way over-simplifying.) Infotopia takes a closer look at the economy of knowledge on the Web. Sounds terrific. I wish I had been able to include it in what I say about Republic.com in Everything Is Miscellaneous…all part of the seven months of regret between when an author turns in a book and when it is available in print.
