Social media…At its most basic sense, social media is a shift in
     how people discover, read and share news, information and
 content. It's a fusion of sociology and technology, transforming
monologues (one to many) into dialogues (many to many) and is
 the democratization of information, transforming people from
                                  content readers into publishers.
                                            (Wikipedia, May 2009)
2006
"Out of this anarchy…
what was governing
the infinite monkeys
now inputting away on
the Internet was the
law of digital
Darwinism, the survival
of the loudest and most
opinionated.”

Andrew Keen: Cult of the amateur
(2007)
“My fear is that these
       technologies are
 infantilising the brain
into the state of small
       children who are
  attracted by buzzing
      noises and bright
     lights, who have a
  small attention span
   and who live for the
              moment.”
Prof. Susan Greenfield

“You have one identity… The days of you having a
different image for your work friends or co-workers
and for the other people you know are probably
coming to an end pretty quickly… Having two identities

  • #36: #planking By ND Strupler cc by CROPPED.jpg Planking (or the Lying Down Game ) is an activity consisting of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous location. Both hands must touch the sides of the body and having a photograph of the participant taken and posted on the Internet is an integral part of the game. [1] Players compete to find the most unusual and original location in which to play. [1] The term planking refers to mimicking a wooden plank . Rigidity of the body must be maintained to constitute good planking. (Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planking_%28fad%29)
