Reaped | Here's an interesting article by Clay Shirky called "Power Laws, Weblogs, and Inequality" on the dynamics of blogging. "A new social system starts, and seems delightfully free of the elitism and cliquishness of the existing systems. Then, as the new system grows, problems of scale set in. Not everyone can participate in every conversation. Not everyone gets to be heard. Some core group seems more connected than the rest of us, and so on." "...A must read for anyone interested in the statistics, fairness, and power relations of blogging," if you listen to slashdot.com |
