Also Thursday...

Since this month's Salon is on Thursday, you might also want to check out the weekly PARC Forum right next door at 4pm. This week's topic is the New Design School at Stanford, and the speaker is the head of "d.school", David Kelley, the founder and chairman of IDEO. If you don't know who IDEO is, or why you should care, you might check out this BusinessWeek cover story. And if you're still skeptical, check out the entire current issue of Fast Company.
