Museum of Obsolete Objects - 158 views

  •  
    A YouTube Page guaranteed to make all but the youngest of us feel old, by showing technology that is obsolete. Great for showing the iPod generation the wonders of cassette tapes and vinyl records. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/ICT+%26+Web+Tools

The Web We Have to Save - Matter - Medium - 18 views

  • , I’ve realized how much the hyperlink has been devalued, almost made obsolete.
  • Nearly every social network now treats a link as just the same as it treats any other object — the same as a photo, or a piece of text — instead of seeing it as a way to make that text richer. You’re encouraged to post one single hyperlink and expose it to a quasi-democratic process of liking and plussing and hearting: Adding several links to a piece of text is usually not allowed. Hyperlinks are objectivized, isolated, stripped of their powers.
  • Fewer users are directly checking dedicated webpages, instead getting fed by a never-ending flow of information that’s picked for them by complex –and secretive — algorithms.
