Salute to Teachers - 0 views

  •  
    The GLOBE Program (http://www.globe.gov) is taking this opportunity to salute teachers everywhere----for all of the things you do----for inspiring your students and cultivating the love of learning. Teachers are the backbone of our educational system. They encourage, inspire and challenge us to reach new heights and dream without boundaries. The GLOBE Program Office in Boulder, Colorado produced this video for teachers everywhere. We encourage you to watch it, send it to your fellow (or favorite) teachers, school administrators, friends and family members. Encourage them to share it with their network as well so that everyone may pause for a moment and truly appreciate the teachers who made a difference in their lives.

Can Blogger-Bashers Predict the Success of a Product? Unlikely. - New York Times - 0 views

  • But every now and then, a couple of messages come in that really irk me. These messages tell me how wrong I am about something I reviewed, which is fine — but they come from people who have *never even tried the product.*
    • Levy Rivers
       
      The issue is not about the product so much as it is about the "hook". The hook is making controversy over something that will get high visibility - for both the basher and pogue.

Are We Contained and Controlled? - 0 views

  • For businesses the overriding philosophy has been capture, contain, control and leverage the masses.
    • Levy Rivers
       
      The market is not interested in controling as much as it is in extracting - through exchange asset (value) for asset (value) a pricing game.
  • The social web flies in the face of this wisdom with users wanting and learning to leverage “free” for self expression,
    • Levy Rivers
       
      The lack of an entrance fee does not necessarily constitued "free" - it only means that a different market mechanism is compensating for the fee not contributed by the user - namely advertising.
  • The irony of this is that old “beliefs systems” are based on a philosophy of scarcity rather than abundance.
    • Levy Rivers
       
      The notion of "irony" presupposes that there is an in group that knowlingly is mstating a statement so as to mock those that are not in the in group. So the only way your statement could be be ironic is that those in the in group use the term to really mean their is no scarcity.

  • Blinded by old beliefs those that continue to try and contain and control will loose to those that leverage free for greater value for a larger market of people willing and wanting to participate in the new “philosophy”.
    • Levy Rivers
       
      What is this "new" philosophy? If the point you are suggest is the antheis to "contorl" that would discribe anchchism - which is fairly old. In fact I would suggest that you read Robert Paul Wolff's "In Defense of Anarchism" published in 1970. Much of is an out growth of the Romantic period that dates back into the 16th Centry or if you want to back even further there is Sophist of the Third Centry BC.
