Books of the year 2011 - facebook, WikiLeaks, Jobs and Math + Crochet!
I usually write this entry in the end of year but I was staying at Diu a beautiful beach for new year holidays in India. There are almost no internet connection. I did internet fasting for 4 days ... :D

You can obtain an idea of "data journalism". I like the idea and fits for my skill set (column writing & programing). I want to apply for Knight News Challenge in the future :D

This book was written by a German hacker Daniel Domscheit-Berg. He was ex No2 of WikiLeaks. I learned a lot such as their favorite technologies, how they keep the data, what kind of books are popular among hackers. Moreover, I enjoyed reading their adventure which took place on all over the world. I hope the author was back to his happy life after WikiLeaks.
German and English (England) journalists, hackers did great job related to WikiLeaks (Of course Australian head also did). I think this is part of the reason why I didn't choose US for the place of my oversea research last year. Diversity +++

I was in Vienna to join a startup meetup on the day Steve Jobs passed away. I escaped from the meetup and cried at a park. I know he was a trouble some person but somehow one of my heroes. I'm not an apple savvy person though. His thought made a lot of influence on me.
