Charles Stross recommends this article:

Expecting everyone to dump their standard of living in the shitter in order to save the environment is not a realistic strategy because humans don’t work that way: it’d require the equivalent of a mass religious conversion, and we have a technical term for periods of history that involve mass religious conversions: we call them interesting. (Usually from a remove of several centuries.)

So Microsoft has laid a bid for Yahoo! Here’s James Robertson’s take:

I have a better idea for Microsoft: fire the people that came up with idea of buying Yahoo. The severance packages will cost you a lot less, and the bad ideas they generate in the future will hurt someone else.
