Hi all, a belated suggestion roundup covering February and early March. We closed commenting for this post, so start throwing stuff our way on the new show suggestion page for late March.
Avid: we saw this article by Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt. The authors are lying low because they sparked a storm of criticism. We’re working on it.
avecfrites, bookgirl, and Nikos: we are interested in online communities like MySpace and Friendster.
joel: we’ve been talking about doing a show about Internet architecture and regulation, and we’re still trying to figure out how to turn it into an hour of radio.
andycarvin: we’ve been following censorship in China for awhile (see The Great Firewall of China and Microsoft Censoring with China) and we’ll follow up on the current story.
p-labb: we like this stuff, too, but we aren’t thinking about doing another scientific innovation show at the moment. You can check out our recent show about Dangerous Ideas.
Michael Osborne: we’re thinking about doing a show on the impact of the highway system on America. Look out for it.
geopriest: we talked about preemption in Neo-Conservatism: The Last Throes.
WESIV, cheesechowmain, and gregbillock: a show on the Euro and the global market for oil could be interesting, but it is going to take more work.
zzAstier and Potter: Civilian nuclear energy and weapons proliferation are certainly big stories that we are following.
plaintext: we may gear up for a show on globalization soon with General Motors’ struggles in the news.
Khavurta: we are intrigued by the topic of Christianity in the Middle East. We’ll consider it as we work on upcoming shows.
cheesechowmain: we’ll order the book about squatters and urban poverty.
alokemon: David is working on a Genetics of Genealogy show.
