"Kelly's genius lies in synthesizing large amounts of information in unique and interesting ways"
In detail
Kelly was publisher and editor of the Whole Earth Review, a journal of unorthodox technical news (formerly called Co-Evolution Quarterly), was a small, yet influential, journal that consistently published trend-making topics years before other publications noticed them. Under Kelly's direction and editorship, Whole Earth was the first consumer magazine to report on virtual reality, ecological restoration, the global teenager, internet culture and artificial life (to name just a few early trends in the 1980s). Kelly is a founding member of the board of The Long Now Foundation, which is a group of individuals encouraging long-term thinking. He is also founding editor and co-publisher of the popular Cool Tools website, which has been reviewing tools daily. He co-founded the on-going Hackers' Conference, and was involved with the launch of the WELL, a pioneering online service.
