That is one hell of a review. Thanks for the link.

Morozov is generally a person you'll want to follow. He's a great modern intellectual.

His TED take-down is pure gold, too: http://www.newrepublic.com/article/books-and-arts/magazine/1....

I submitted his book review a while ago, if people want to discuss it at length. I imagine it'll ruffle the feathers of no small amount of people on HN: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5346781. :)

Eddie Huang describes TED as a 'Scientology summer camp'. He's not quite as eloquent as Morozov but entertaining nonetheless with interesting details about what TED fellows get up to.

Excellent stuff.

BTW the New Republic has a beautifully clean reading UI - the site has the same feel of Instapaper or ReadItLater - seems like they decided 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.'
