You wake up and check your email on your bedside iPad — that’s one app. During breakfast you browse Facebook, Twitter, and The New York Times — three more apps. On the way to the office, you listen to a podcast on your smartphone. Another app. At work, you scroll through RSS feeds in a reader and have Skype and IM conversations.
In May 2010, we conducted a two-day media experiment. 8,000 people signed up, 1,500 submissions came in, 35 editors selected 70 pieces to fill a 60-page magazine. People liked it.

Resultó más que una conversación (…): el trío, periodistas experimentados de la Costa Oeste, convencieron a un amigo de que montara una plataforma (content management system), Honan publicó un post sobre la broma en una nueva dirección de Internet. Hubo tweets, emails, posts en blogs. Arrancó.
Sometimes, it seems like the entire world is down. All of us. The refrain of change has faded or flared into anger. The economy’s story is told in a faltering line that peters down and to the right.
We are delighted to announce that the Longshot editors have selected Aholaah Arzah, author of Ring Cycle , to receive our $2000 feature fee. As Mat put it, when the three of us read this story together in a Gakwer conference room last weekend, we let out a collective gasp.
