App review video: Barefoot Atlas for iPad puts the book to shame
My Globe colleagues and I made a video! Woot! Also, I found a ‘mistake’ in the app. You can watch it on our site here: www.theglobeandmail.com/news/technology/technology-video/video-barefoot-atlas…

In an otherwise thoughtful post on paywalls @bertarcher dumps on young people (via @torontostandard)
They are correct in assuming young people cost less. They do. Much. They’re the scabs of every work force. The only reason the rest of the labour community puts up with them is because they figure they’ll be the next generation, carry on the good work, learn from their elders and change the world and their various industries for the better.
I’m not a “young person” anymore so I don’t take this personally, but calling the younger employees “the scabs of every work force” is shockingly over the top invective toward an entire demographic. Read it all here: http://www.torontostandard.com/the-sprawl/bert-archer-globe-paywall#

I may be one of these— “Motorists boil over ‘in the age of rage’” - via @globeandmail
We are in the age of rage,” contends Leon James, a psychology professor at the University of Hawaii who has studied driver aggression for about two decades. “You see it in many places, like computer rage, surf rage, sidewalk rage, office rage. Rage has become a culturally sanctioned way of expressing your frustration.
By colleague and pal Renata D’Aliesio, love this quote:
“Road rage is a kind of a temper-tantrum skill that you give yourself permission to perform,” Dr. James said. “It’s not always like it’s portrayed – uncontrollable rage, going temporarily insane.
“Road rage … is a rage that has been building up inside that you did not manage.”
