Daily Thoughts 10/17/2010

This is an article on the book Hacking Work Breaking Stupid Rules for Smart Results by Bill Jensen and Josh Klein http://www.mediabistro.com/mediajobsdaily/why-you-should-break-the-rules-at-work_b4114 . It looks interesting, but also potentially troublesome.

I am going to write my review of The Vertical Farm tomorrow.  I did take a look around to see if there were any planned urban greenhouses for Manhattan and I found a company called Gotham Greens which is developing a rooftop greenhouse system. http://gothamgreens.com/Fast_Company.pdf  It reads a little like a mix of marketing for Whole Foods and an experiment in urban agriculture.
