		<title>YOU can be Muhammad&#8217;s publisher</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written before about the control-your-darlings phenomenon, where, for example, companies like bandstocks offer anyone, anywhere, to be a producer of artists&#8217; albums. Now you can control your favorite writers as well. Even Nobel laureates.
Right now, Swedish publisher Bookhouse invites anyone to buy a stake in Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunu&#8217;s new book. Though not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is it glowing in California?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Finally, you can find out yourself. No need to take my word for it, or to peruse all those studies reporting on the average life satisfaction in countries and areas across the world.
Is it true, as I write in the book, that it does not really matter where you live? Is it true that people [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beware of the future people &#8211; they´re better than us!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, we learned that Hollywood movie producers have discovered nextopia. Meister guest-blogger Martin Hugosson tipped me that TV and Southpark have, too. Nextopia at its finest:

		<title>Nobody wants to be a movie star anymore?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day (scroll down a few posts and refresh your memory) I wrote that the world&#8217;s premier expectity factory American Idol has had to change its business model, as the &#8220;idols&#8221; that come out of the factory are no longer worth much. The money is in the expectity phase, not when the artist is in fact an &#8220;idol&#8221;, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Saving energy but losing possessions in the world of any</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the world of any, anyone can find out where you are at any time. A perfect case of Blogarazzi-bummer, your facebook updates, tweets, and geopositioning like foursquare mean that your whereabouts are a mystery to no one anymore.
That means that you can save energy, you don&#8217;t need to set a timer to the lighting in your [...]]]></description>

		<title>YOU can avoid space jam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve heard me nagging about this several times by now &#8211; in the world of any, anyone, anywhere can buy their own ticket to space anytime (just log on virgin galactic), and though expensive right now, it&#8217;s expected to be free in ten years&#8217; time. And, as I&#8217;ve also written before, you can already book [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nobody wants to be an Idol anymore</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written about American Expectity, aka American Idol, a number of times before. It&#8217;s the world&#8217;s premier expectity factory. And now they realized it themselves: They produce expectities, artists whom people love and want &#8211; before the show is over and before they are supposed to be actual idols. The problem is that once these artists [...]]]></description>

		<title>Here&#8217;s where to get your used military aeroplanes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve written before about how the word &#8220;secret&#8221; has become obsolete in the world of any, where anyone, anywhere, can get hold of information about anything, anytime. Like the location of the British Queen&#8217;s summer house, or the name of people involved in confidential court cases.
The other day, someone stumbled upon the Boneyard on Google [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kick-Ass trailerism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The world&#8217;s most watched and hyped movie right now: Kick-Ass.
Or rather, the red band trailer for Kick-Ass. &#8220;Red band&#8221; meaning that it contains explicit content and that viewing must be restricted. In other words, it can&#8217;t be showed in theaters.
But what does that matter in the world of any? Anyone, anywhere can view it any time, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Ashton&#8217;s in Russia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Diplomacy in the new millennium&#8217;s world of any, where anyone, anywhere can make monumental impact anytime:
Instead of politicians and diplomats, the US government sends Ashton Kutcher to Russia to spark cooperation against corruption and human traficking.
Who&#8217;s Ashton Kutcher? Aside from his career as an actor, producer, media entrepreneur and Demi toy boy, he&#8217;s the world&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
