Friday Links: Is collectivism ruining the Internet?

• Your must read of the week, Caterina Fake’s response to Jaron Lanier’s claim in the Wall Street Journal that collectivism is ruining the Internet.
• Time test: Pen v keyboard v Newton v Graffiti v Treo v iPhone. Which one do you think will be the fastest when it comes to entering text?
• The evolution of the Super Bowl logo. I’m partial to the XI myself. I like that kicky little swirl.
• Ad Week has posted all 66 commercials in the “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” series. You know, in case you missed one.
• Take a look at the controversial new logo for the New York City Opera. It looks like a circle inside a rectangle to me. I don’t get it. If you do, please explain.
• Infographic of the Week: Charting the Beatles.
• The Ford logo that almost was.
