PageRank is a link analysis algorithm, named after Larry Page[1] and used by the Google web search engine, that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the World Wide Web, with the purpose of "measuring" its relative importance within the set. The algorithm may be applied to any collection of entities with reciprocal quotations and references. The numerical weight that it assigns to any given element E is referred to as the PageRank of E and denoted by The name "PageRank" is a trademark of Google, and the PageRank process has been patented (U.S. Patent 6,285,999). However, the patent is assigned to Stanford University and not to Google. Google has exclusive license rights on the patent from Stanford University. The university received 1.8 million shares of Google in exchange for use of the patent; the shares were sold in 2005 for $336 million.[2][3] The value of incoming links is colloquially referred to as "Google juice", "link juice" or "Pagerank juice".[citation needed] Via Howard Rheingold

Until it realized that websites were happily selling and exchanging links not as a way to honestly rank and vote for each other's quality, but only to artificously increase their search engine visibility.
Today PageRank still exists, but it offers little insight and help to web publishers wanting to improve their online reach.

Robin raises a good point about the classic arms race between Google, SEO, and spam.

Apple wants to give Siri a distinct personality and AI to make interacting with her more natural, and it is capitalizing on our tendency to anthropomorphize things to remake its digital assistant.
Brad Ovenell-Carter's insight:
Mostly I find that schools, even ones with (or planning for) robust technology programs, take a narrow view of the way we interact or could interact with our technology. I suspect that is a reflection of the deep structure of schools, which is set up to control behaviour & isolate the individual. Outside of schools, we are more open-minded. There is no way current classroom design can accommodate students and teachers all talking to their devices. Delete the scoop?

Excellent thinking from may friend David. He makes the point that we too often (wrongly) assume our students are uniform creatures, that they all should behave more or less the same way given the same stimuli,especially within a given class. We forget or overlook the idea of cognitive overload (coming from work in other subjects or from outside school altogether.) Or, I might add, that students might deliberately choose not to perform at their best--often for good reasons. Delete the scoop?

In the online conversation, Professor Malone addresses a very important question that comes up when first considering a brand new concept like collective intelligence. “Why are we doing all this work?” “There are at least three answers. The first is, as scientists, we want to understand how the world works, and in particular, how the world of groups of people and computers work together. How human societies and human networks work. Second, we want to help businesses, governments and other kinds of organizations know how to work better themselves. How can we create more intelligent organizations, more intelligent businesses, more intelligent governments, more intelligent societies?” “Third, in a way, we are trying to understand how our whole world and society is evolving in a way that I think is making us more collectively intelligent. You could say that the Internet is one way of greatly accelerating the connections among different people and computers on our planet. As all the people and computers on our planet get more and more closely connected, it's becoming increasingly useful to think of all the people and computers on the planet as a kind of global brain.” “Our future as a species may depend on our ability to use our global collective intelligence to make choices that are not just smart, but also wise.”
