Documentary by Brian Knappenberger.
The Internet’s Own Boy follows
the story of programming prodigy and information activist Aaron Swartz.
From Swartz's help in the development of the basic internet protocol
RSS to his co-founding of Reddit, his fingerprints are all over the
internet. But it was Swartz's groundbreaking work in social justice and
political organizing combined with his aggressive approach to
information access that ensnared him in a two-year legal nightmare. It
was a battle that ended with the taking of his own life at the age of
26. Aaron's story touched a nerve with people far beyond the online
communities in which he was a celebrity. This film is a personal story
about what we lose when we are tone deaf about technology and its
relationship to our civil liberties.

I have a
no asshole rulewhich is really simple: I really don’t want to work with assholes. So if you’re an asshole and you work on my team, I’m going to fire you. Now, if the whole team saysgosh, that’s awful. We want to work with as many assholes as we can!then we have a simple solution. I’ll fire me!

About Us (Open Library)
by benoit
What if there was a library which held every book? Not every book on sale, or every important book, or even every book in English, but simply every book—a key part of our planet's cultural legacy.

> Infogami is the Macintosh of building websites. Perhaps it's a bit lofty of a goal, but we say aim high.
