Swartz was a crackhead and a criminal. It's a good thing he's no longer with us.

I, for one, don't care. It was his personal decision to end it this way.

Also I'd like to know how many of you will think of his 'legacy' on a daily basis in 6 months time.

To part with $30 off a $1,000 payment. Way too much for me. Pass.

No. Speaking for me personally, times of procrastinating because of Facebook are long gone. After some time, you realise there are clearly no benefits. Hell, I'll say it, I think Facebook has reached its peak already (maybe not in number of users) but definitely in other areas. There are healthier alternatives to almost every service at Facebook.

And as somebody else mentioned, if Google wanted to charge $1/yr for all their services, I'd be glad to pay it. Same goes for iCloud and other Apple related services.

getcloudapp.com? I've been using it since the very start, never experienced any problems. Native Mac app, alternatives for Windows and as well free apps for all iOS deviced. Couldn't ask for more, really.

Interesting thing to read while sipping your morning coffee but that's it, really.

It might be a great read. I'm sure plenty of young people will find this useful.

Are there any similar books/notes/pdfs around?

We could go on days and days about this matter (and maybe we should).

But we live in the times where nobody knows what will be going on in 30 years time†, so I believe this quote is spot on: "Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything one learned in school."-AE

† to all who don't agree with this statement - we can't report weather for 5 days in advance, let alone know the economy and everything else in 30 years
