Flipboard is an invaluable tool in my curation, but it’s a strange thing to be limited to my iPhone, and sending all sorts of interesting pointers to Pocket. I learned today that there is an android emulator called BlueStacks App Player for Mac OS X and Windows, and the android Flipboard app runs on it. Aside from having to switch to ‘natural’ scrolling (backwards from what I am used to), it just works! I downloaded Flipboard, logged in, and it all works. So now I can do Flipboard on my Mac. Sort of.

  • Complex organisation arises from webs of interaction among causal factors | So, it turns out that DNA is, in fact, a great metaphor for business culture, but only after you realize that DNA is not a few hundred off-on switches, but instead a universe of unknowable complexities, that we can interact with, and understand at some abstract cartoonish level, but not control, and never fully comprehend.
