The MacArthur Foundation is exploring how technology is changing kids and changing learning- too late for me. They are committing $50 million to this. I found this piece really cool and hopefully sign of things to come.

I love the fact we can outsource the buying of Lindens at 241.429 per dollar at time of writing- at leats for 5k worth.
