[Comments for Warren Ellis] Comment on Gin And The Cognitive Surplus by contemporary artifacts ...: Clay has definitely identified some good ideas, but they’re just a few threads in the tapestry of Thoughtspace, and they may not be as critical as he thinks they are. Every time I think I’ve latched onto some linchpin in society, I learn that things are a lot more complicated.

[Networked_Performance] “Analysis Without Analysis” by Felix Stalder: Shirky develops this idea into a different direction, by introducing the concept of the ”˜Coasian floor’. Organised efforts underneath this floor are, as Shirky writes, ”˜valuable to someone but too expensive to be taken on in any institutional way, because the basic and unsheddable costs of being an institution in the first place make those activities not worth pursuing’.
[Elevated Thoughts] Book Review: Here Comes Everybody: Clay Shirky’s book Here Comes Everybody is a terrific book that highlights the role the internet plays in helping people more easily create groups and organize. In the same way Chris Anderson’s The Long Tail highlighted the significant small business opportunity created by the internet, Shirky highlights the immense opportunity for personal freedom and human connection afforded by the internet.
[Here Comes Everybody] Gin, Television, and Social Surplus: You may remember that Pluto got kicked out of theplanet club a couple of years ago, so all of a sudden there was all ofthis activity on Wikipedia. The talk pages light up, peopleare editing the article like mad, and the whole community is in an ruckus--"How should we characterize this change in Pluto's status?" And a little bitat a time they move the article--fighting offstage all thewhile--from, "Pluto is the ninthplanet," to "Pluto is an odd-shaped rock with an odd-shapedorbit at the edge of the solar system."
[Social Media Explorer] Ad:Tech Chicago: Can We Please Stop Preaching to the Choir?: In his keynote, Shirky said that in regards to the social web, it’s no longer a matter of who gets it and who doesn’t get it, but rather what elements of social media are a fit for which companies, communications purposes, and contexts. I would respectfully disagree. I think there are still an awful lot of holdouts, particularly in the advertising industry, who don’t get social media. Because I don’t think it’s possible to get it if you don’t participate in it yourself. It’s an intrinsically personal medium, and I don’t think you can understand it sans personal experience. Shirky was speaking at the institutional level, and I’m speaking at the level of individuals who are working in marketing and advertising, but ultimately action is taken or not taken at the individual level.
