Eu e Aaron Swartz
Esta foi uma pequena contribuição que eu fiz
para um projeto do ativista morto sexta-feira passada Aaron Swartz (26 anos). A
mídia inteira elogiou o trabalho dele (curiosamente, o artigo sobre a morte do
Aaron é que está bem na frente do meu, no Observatório, nesta semana).
Isso
foi há dois anos. Ele tinha 24 e eu. Ninguém acreditou no projeto, na época.
Agora é parte da história da mídia. Era uma grande ideia: uma biblioteca
mundial para viajantes. Os livros estavam geograficamente localizados, o
usuário clicava e pegava o livro em qualquer lugar do mundo. Muita gente fez
pouco caso de mim por isso. Por me meter numa contribuição sem ganhar nada. Mas
eu tive a honra de ter algo em comum com ele. E a Open Library vai continuar.
