What did you love best about In the Plex?
Well told story of about the biggest disruptor as of recent. Hopefully the company turns into a non-profit, or some other better organizational model.

Where does The Launch Pad rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Interesting insight to into the culture of one of the most innovative communities. The story goes a bit more into personal relationships than I prefer, however the entrepreneurial spirit and excitement conveyed makes it more manageable.

Would you consider the audio edition of Audible Technology Review, January 2013 to be better than the print version?
Innovation a key competitive advantage, these reviews keep a finger on the pulse. They are well narrated, the content is board in scope, with a dense holistic viewpoint on predictions on how the world will change in the near and distance future.

Chris Anderson takes you to the front lines of a new industrial revolution as today’s entrepreneurs, using open source design and 3-D printing, bring manufacturing to the desktop. In an age of custom-fabricated, do-it-yourself product design and creation, the collective potential of a million garage tinkerers and enthusiasts is about to be unleashed, driving a resurgence of American manufacturing. A generation of "Makers" using the Web’s innovation model will help drive the next big wave in the global economy, as the new technologies of digital design and rapid prototyping gives everyone the power to invent.

Would you listen to Makers again? Why?
A classic listen. The ideas discussed help listeners think about how the world is going to be shaped. It will be interesting to see how the ideas, parallel with large tech companies, think Amazon Locker and Bufferbox, that are improving logistics, and if local libraries begin to purchase this printers.

We will soon be able to meet and exceed the basic needs of every man, woman, and child on the planet. Abundance for all is within our grasp.
