(2004-02-24) Paying Cory

So, having just read Eastern Standard Tribe on my PDA, having done the same thing with Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom, I feel like I owe Cory Doctorow some money. Challenges to Business Models For Information. Some options:

• buy one of these books in paper - might do that for Down And Out In The Magic Kingdom so I can highlight chunks...

• buy his short-story print book A Place So Foreign

• Amazon Tip Jar? (Put more money right in his pocket.) Doesn't seem to have one.

• stalk him and take him out to dinner - direct transfer of value. To be known as Singing For Your Supper, or Dinner Ware.
