Michael O. Church has produced a ridiculously long series of blog posts that explores some interesting ideas he has about the workplace. He recently posted a summary of the last 20 posts, and the next, final post is intended to provide his solutions to the proposed problems. This only qualifies as a short online text if you forgo reading the first 20 blog posts, otherwise it's like 90,000 words.
