Howard Rheingold on DIY media by youth, public voice, & moral panics
2. Oktober 2006
Neues vom Altmeister, Auszug: ” … Constructivist theories of education that exhort teachers to guide active learning through hands-on experimentation are not new ideas, and neither is the notion that digital media can be used to encourage this kind of learning. What is new is a population of “digital natives” who have learned how to learn new kinds of software before they started high school, who carry mobile phones, media players, game devices and laptop computers and know how to use them, and for whom the internet is not a transformative new technology but a feature of their lives that has always been there, like water and electricity. This population is both self-guided and in need of guidance: although a willingness to learn new media by point-and-click exploration might come naturally to today’s student cohort, there’s nothing innate about knowing how to apply their skills to the processes of democracy …”

The Future of the Newspaper is as a 2.0 Platform
2. Oktober 2006
Michael Kinsley, writing in Time magazine, asks the big (and loaded) question: “Do Newspapers Have a Future?” Kinsley notes that newspapers have embraced blogging as one solution, but overall his column raises more questions than it even attempts to answer.
Blogging has been wonderful for newspapers. It unshackles reporters from just delivering facts. They can now show who they are as people through the expression of opinions. However, blogging is the first in a series of dominoes that have to fall for the newspaper to thrive in a world where the reader rules - and tells everyone so.

Network Collaboration: Peer To Peer As A New Way Of Living
1. Oktober 2006
Network Collaboration is redefining the way we communicate, publish, do business and build collective knowledge, and it has been made possible with the advent of free or affordable peer to peer technologies. Peer to peer, as a term, has often been associated with online file sharing networks, where users trade files with one another from all over the globe. But in recent times peer to peer collaboration and the setting up of networks - both on the internet and in office intranets - has expanded to encompass a vast range of ways for people to collaborate effectively, regardless of their location.
Michel Bauwens is the founder of the Foundation For Peer To Peer Alternatives, and a strong advocate of how peer to peer is not simply a technology, but a new way of living. As the worlds of media and business shift away from a top down, hierarchical mode of operation and open up to the creativity and productivity of the public, and each individual within an organization, so society is going through necessary and timely changes.
Onlineumfrage “Wikis in Unternehmen
1. Oktober 2006
Tim Bartel und seine Wiki-in-Unternehmen-Umfrage: “Ich habe soeben einige ausgewählte Ergebnisse meiner deutschen Onlineumfrage “Wikis in Unternehmen” auf der entsprechenden Ergebnis-Seite veröffentlicht. In Zukunft folgen weitere Daten aus der noch laufenden internationalen Umfrage und der Telefonbefragung.
Die dargestellten Ergebnisse basieren auf 196 Fragebögen und sind - es lohnt sich das öfter mal zu betonen, bevor es jemand falsch versteht - nicht repräsentativ.
Die kompletten Ergebnisse sind entsprechend ausgewertet dann meiner Diplomarbeit zu entnehmen, sobald diese abgeschlossen ist …” Lohnt sich aber jetzt schon!
