“When you broadcast your book reading voluntarily, it creates moments of fascinating serendipity.”
Clive Thompson, Smarter Than You Think: How Technology is Changing Our Minds for the Better

“Memory has always been social. Now we’re using search engines and computers to augment our memories, too.”
Clive Thompson

“Ambient awareness is the experience of knowing what’s going on in the lives of other people — what they’re thinking about, what they’re doing, what they’re looking at — by paying attention to the small stray status messages that people are putting online. We’re now able to stitch together these fantastic details and mental maps of what is going on in other people’s lives.”
