Weekend fun – read a good book: “Makers”
I’ve been enjoying this book tremendously over the last days, thought I’d let you know about it.
The book is “Makers” by Cory Doctorow. The story plays in the near future, where some of the emerging trends of today are already steampunk, and the up-and coming gizmos of the science labs are found in the small store next door. The story makes you learn about important innovation trends, like 3D printing, open innovation, crowdsourcing, biotechnology body enhancing, etc. – and have the joy of reading a novel – two in one fun. There’s really a lot covered here, as was to be expected by one of the best novelists of the dotcom era.
If you want to give the KC a little love, use these links for your purchases on

I would also suggest an additional book of Doctorow: Little Brother! I downloaded it from his webpage and read with the Kindle.
