Hacking the Academy -- 3 more days to contribute

Laura at 11D twitted & blogged about this intriguing project today -- a book to be "crowdsourced" in one week.

The idea is novel and, perhaps, under-publicized, so much so that a Google search of "Hacking the Academy" didn't take me to the website. I didn't have time to check it out until now, but I think it's a fascinating idea. My only problem with it is that one week may be too short a period to get a meaningful discussion going -- particularly because they said they'd publish the comments to the selected posts/ essays. Those I checked out didn't have any comments (yet). I wish I had time to contribute somehow, but I think I won't, maybe you do.
