    New investment for School of Everything!

    We're very pleased to announce a new round of investment for School of Everything.

    Tim Jackson, founder of QXL.com and LendAround, has become an investor and joined the board of the company. Channel 4 has followed up its initial investment through its new innovation fund 4iP and Sean Park and Geoff Mulgan join existing investors Rocco Pellegrinelli and the Young Foundation in this round.

    Stop reading your damn email !

    I was into email about a decade ago. These days I prefer to avoid communication forms that demand my attention. I can definitely recommend ending an email (and twitter) (and RSS) addiction.
