I am grateful for Kevin Seeber's outstanding presentation on the quickly evolving world of publishing and writing. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

With his presentation in mind, please read this article:
http://www.newyorker.com/arts/critics/books/2009/07/06/090706crbo_books_gladwell?currentPage=all

It is a book review of Free: The Future of a Radical Price, by Malcolm Gladwell.

Please blog on your thoughts and reflections on this article and Kevin Seeber's presentation. Blogs due by class start on Friday, Sept. 7, and should be at least 300 words in length.
