  It’s certainly true that the Apple Logo on the back of the screen is for others to see, not the computer owner. I hadn’t thought about the white earphones having a similar purpose. Sharfstein and Stein (American Economic Review, 1990) have an important paper on herd behavior in the financial industry. Earls

  This looks like a great project, Carrie. I lived in east Tennessee for several years and I love the Appalachians!

  It’s another great example of innovation in providing access to information, though the lack of technology in this case is fascinating.

  Thanks for the link to the Clay Shirky TED Talk, Mariana (it did work). It’s actually a pretty good summary of some of his key concepts from the book, and there is another video on the webpage from 2005 that covers others (coordination costs, institutional loss, and cooperative infrastructure). His opening points on
