The document discusses how social networks both create and challenge traditional ideas of community. While social networks can foster a sense of community by removing geographical boundaries and connecting people with shared interests, they may also decrease face-to-face interaction and weaken strong community ties. The development of social networks is transforming how communities are formed, so it is important to study their impact on human life and relationships.The New Web: Social, Real-Time, And Mobile

This document discusses the concept of "the social" in social media. It explores how the meaning of "social" has evolved from early notions of computer networking facilitating collaboration, to today's emphasis on loosely connected individuals in networks. Some key points discussed include:
- Jean Baudrillard's theory that the social has disappeared and imploded into the media.
- Whether social media interactions could spill over into real-world organizing or if they primarily serve individual entertainment and marketing.
- Theorists like Hardt and Negri who see social media as reinforcing repression rather than contestation of forces, though its productive social aspects are equally important.

Networked life has fundamentally changed civic participation in three key ways:
1. It has networked people and affected behaviors like how we allocate our attention across continuous streams of information.
2. It has networked information which is now pervasively generated, consumed, personal, participatory, linked, continually edited, multi-platformed, and real-time.
3. It has changed the civic ecosystem to include more niches, topics, alliances, DIY capabilities, arguments, and disclosure, with more people involved in decision making through crowdsourcing and algorithms.VU Amsterdam: Social Web Course: Lecture1: Introduction to Social Web

Better Media Plumbing For The Social WebStowe Boyd

Stowe Boyd argues that the current social web architecture needs improvement to better support social interactions and information flow. He advocates for a more decentralized "web of flow" approach that allows information to organically spread through social connections more like blood flows through the body's circulatory system, rather than relying primarily on centralized pages, links, and search functions as in the past. This new approach promises to better reflect how social media and interactions are actually used by people.08 10 Why Conversations Migrate

Entrepreneurialitis refers to the acute or chronic stupidity that can be induced by the stress of entrepreneurial activity. Some symptoms include believing you don't need to properly test your business model or bring in outside experts, and thinking you can succeed by doing things quickly and cheaply rather than properly. Entrepreneurs may convince themselves that changing plans constantly or sticking rigidly to the original plan are both strengths, and managers may prefer techniques they don't understand over ones that work.Building Social Applications

The document discusses social applications and their impact on business, media, and society. It explores what makes applications social, the common factors in successful social applications, and what is worth building. It examines concepts like profiles defined by aggregated user data and flows rather than static information, discovery of things, places and people through social networks, and the importance of groups and communities defined by shared user tags rather than predefined categories.Social = Me First

The document discusses the emergence of a new category of software designed to intentionally augment social systems and shape culture, contrasting it with past technologies like email that inadvertently changed company structures. It emphasizes a shift towards individualism, where personal connections and discovery define social interactions, and the individual becomes the focal point of community and market dynamics. The concept of 'social tools' is introduced as software that guides human behavior into new patterns.Overload, Shmoverload

Editor's Notes
- #2: What is the web worth? How would you go about valuing it, if you had to? Is it worth all the tea in china? If Google wanted to buy the whole thing, what would it cost? Every blog post, spam comment, Wikipedia entry, and hyperlink: what would we charge if Martians arrived and wanted to buy it? The hardware involved is incalculable, and no reliable numbers exist. We cant even begin to estimate how much we have spent on it. IDC calculated that 27 million servers had been deployed by the end of 2005, growing at an increasing rate of 3 or more million per year. Some have estimated that something on the order of 8 B USD was spent powering the servers alone, worldwide. This was about the same as we spend for powering televisions, globally, and growing much faster. On a crude level, we might compare it to television, which is telling. In the US, every hour that people spend online, is an hour not spent watching television. But this transcends an advertising-based valuation of clicks and eyeballs, because the web is not being created like television shows: its not being developed by hollywood. It is being built by us, for us. And it is being built without blueprints, without any centralized approval, without even any general agreement on what it is for. The big story of the web isn't the props - the servers, networks, ten trillion web sites, and all the information lying around in databases and in HTML - but what people are saying to each other and how we have been changed as a result. We are creating the Web to happen to ourselves.
