Although there are a lot of useful thoughts on information literacy, there here are two things that stand out for me, the emphasis on the unexpected (so important for creativity, although Rita talks about serendipity) and on information mediation by humans (recommenders, RSS, micro-blogging). As far as I am concerned, this is a much more productive way of looking at (open) networked learning than, say, discuss whether connectivism is learning theory, an epistemology or ... Emphasising _creativity_ speaks to the value networked learning has for a knowledge society in which people need to solve wicked, complex problems in teams. Highlighting _recommenders and micro-blogging_ speaks to the specific mechanisms (unlike, say, the search algorithms provided by Google) that social networks need to become vertitable networked learning environments.
