Feb 6: Get into reading blogs - a link to the controversial
So you've found me. Maybe you have a blog yourself? Well here's something to get you out of the rut of reading only the blogs you've found that you like. This innocuous link sits in my Bookmarks Toolbar Folder and one click flings me on to a random blog in the Blogger system. Ironically it is blogs like mine which are set up manually and run on other servers which won't appear when you browse the blogosphere in this way, but it will still get you reading.
Click http://www.blogger.com/redirect/next_blog.pyra and you're away. I hope for your sake, you find something posted that you don't agree with (or just plain wrong). If that's the case, post a comment there, then state your point of view on your own blog. That's all there is to it. Citizen journalists unite!

Feb 6: Free Culture by Lawrence Lessig
These days, there's no [good] reason not to be an activist. Free culture, subtitled, 'How Big Media Uses Technology and the Law to Lock Down Culture and Control Creativity' gets the Valentine Must-Read award of the month. This book should be of interest to anyone who considers themselves to be creative, and anyone who was born in the last 25 years or so and wonders why they aren't.
It is available in many, many e-book formats from the derivitives and remixes page on his site. To get some idea of the content, take a look at the table of contents of the book.
