MARCH 28, 2014
TED gives me the chance to brainstorm with loads of people who gather to discuss ways to change the world through technology and design. I explained Benetech’s efforts to grow the impact of our Bookshare library globally, specifically discussing partnerships with groups in India and Kenya. What can we do for them?

Developing a daily route can be helpful in terms of productivity and getting your mind in the GTD (getting things done) zone. This will do wonders for your mind and will get your brain out of relaxing mode and into work mode (even if your desk is within arm’s reach of your bed). Work in Sprints.

Beneblog: Technology Meets Society
JUNE 23, 2014
That’s what’s been on my mind lately. I have disruptive approaches to social innovation in mind, with an increasingly connected society where the cost of prototyping and deploying new products is extremely low, and where innovation is no longer the sole purview of well-funded for-profit corporations. 10X: ten times the impact.

Last month, I got a chance to talk with Nell Taylor, founder of the Chicago Underground Library. Our volunteers are the heart and soul and brains and heavy lifters (figuratively and-- when you have boxes of books involved-- literally) of our organization. Nell will be responding to comments on this blog and can also be reached here.

ANNs are inspired by the structure and function of the human brain.

I'm working on a personal project (slowly) to open a cafe/bar venue that is also a design incubator for participatory exhibits. My goals are two-fold: to develop a dynamic, creative, social platform for my community and to distribute its successful elements to other civic learning institutions (museums, libraries, community centers).
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
