The Rule of Four and Hypnerotomachia Required Reading List: Rule of Four Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason have written a novel in which they have invented a solution behind the mysteries of the 1499 book The Hypnerotomachia -- a book written by an unknown author (or authors) in five languages, beautifully illustrated and completely enigmatic. It's the story of "Strife of Love in a Dream." NYTimes Book Review by Dinitia Smith lays out the story and the tale of the authors. Ironically, I spent hours this weekend trying to find the title of the book (having read another review a few weeks earlier) so I could go get it. [Cyndi Greening's Radio Blog] 6:47:22 AM

Memex 1.1 This is Fantastic. I just happened to notice the Memex 1.1 Radio Weblog - it's from Cambridge (UK)! Brilliant. Fantastic. Fab. Great articles, lots of nice photography, and having lived in Cambridge myself for about 6 years, I can only agree: Summer always catches Cambridge unawares. One day it's wet, overcast and cold. Then, when you least expect it, you find yourself living in one of the most achingly beautiful towns in the world. [The Cartoonist] 6:41:42 AM
