Reading links for the day

Here is a list of links that I am reading these past few days:

• A Spec for the Social Feed Reader
  (a much more fundamental shift in the way we're consuming things on the web)
  This is a cool idea that addresses our attention cost problem...
  

• 'Curation', and journalists as curator
  (If we talk about curation, we refer to more than a simple act of filtering)
  This is another oportunity for someone to take a crack. Again, this addresses our attention cost problem
  

• Google's Power Play
  (The search giant wants to remake the electricity grid—and do for power what it did for the web)
  Energy is just bits of information. I am waiting to see how the market opens up for smaller guys to play
  

• Check Cashers, Redeemed
  (Inside, it’s like banking turned upside down. Poor customers are commodities, deposits are irrelevant, bad credit makes for a good loan candidate and recessions can be boom times.)
  A different form of banking. One to learn and apply.
  

• Social Credit, Make Your Own Bank
  We may be at an age where there is opportunities to reinvent how the financial system works...
