A great 'experiment' to see if yoiu are any good at detecting false information. This will take you 30 minutes to rethink documentaries for the rest of you life. I think it is a good investment.

Ken's Key Takeaway 1)“Purpose of an education is to help learners learn on their own.” 2) the other is to indocrinate 3) like a hammer, technology is just a tool. A hammer doesn't care if it is used to build a house or to crush a skull. It depends upon the user.

Tiffany Shlain, founder of the Webby Awards, talks about today's interconnected society at The Economist's Ideas Economy: Information 2012 event in San Francisco. I wanted to bring this to your attention because what she is speaking about concerns all of us
What does it mean to live in a connected world? How is it changing us, our culture and the planet?
Her film "Connected" is a must see! It's thought provoking and captures the essence of the experience, the anxiety, overwhelm, mystery, commonality, rapture, looks at the potential and wonder of what innovation, knowledge, discovery lies ahead.
Tiffany Shlain:
"Go as far as you can see and when you get there. you'll be able to see even farther"

Ken's Key Takeaway: As you know, I love Clay Shirky's ability to make average people undersand and care about deep topics. In this TED talk he discusses how participative social media will evenutally change governments. Key Quote (not exact): A new form of arguing has arrived. How will we evolve. Key idea: have patience. It took us 150 years after the erotic novel to come up with the idea of a scientific journal. Ken

Thank you for the rescoop. I really like this video. I am lucky to be the first scoop for your site. I have used scoop.it since March of 2011 and I am very happy with it. My best advice to new members is to create a strategic tagging system that is comfortable for you and then tag everything. It makes it easy for you and your followers to find articles later and Scoop.it will reward you with a high score, because they value an organized web. Best of luck to you!

"Our system of law doesn't acknowledge the derivative nature of creativity. Instead, ideas are regarded as property, as unique and original lots with distinct boundaries.
But ideas aren't so tidy. They're layered, they’re interwoven, they're tangled."

Dubbed “the explainer” by popular geek publication Wired because of his viral YouTube video that summarizes Web 2.0 in under five minutes, cultural anthropologist Michael Wesch brought his Web 2.0 wisdom to the University of Manitoba on June 17 (see video above). During his presentation, the Kansas State University professor breaks down his attempts to integrate Facebook, Netvibes, Diigo, Google Apps, Jott, Twitter, and other emerging technologies to create an education portal of the future. “It’s basically an ongoing experiment to create a portal for me and my students to work online,” he explains. “We tried every social media application you can think of. Some worked, some didn’t.”
