The sentient web? Is it the social web? The mobile web? Is it some form of virtual reality?

Our devices extend us, and we extend them. * Data analysis, visualization, and other techniques for seeing patterns in data are going to be an increasingly valuable skillset.

    7.20.09 *The media landscape that we knew, as familiar as it was... that professionals broadcast messages to amateurs is increasingly slipping away. *We are increasingly in a landscape where media is global, social, ubiquitous, and cheap. *...a world of media where the former audience are now increasingly full participants. *...media is less and less about crafting a single message to be consumed by individuals and is more and more often a way of creating an environment for convening and supporting groups. *The really crazy change...the fact that people are no longer disconnected from each other. *The size of the network, the complexity of the network is actually the square of the number of participants. *As recently as last decade, most of the media available for public consumption was produced by professionals. Those days are over, never to return. *They [barackobama.com] had understood that their role with MyBO.com was to convene the supporters, but not to control their supporters.

    As John Maeda recently noted, the missing partner to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) is IDEA (Intuition, Design, Emotion, Art). As a person who was trained on both sides and now works and plays across STEM and IDEA, I feel strongly that our education programs need to combine both in order to create the T-shaped people that can go out and make a difference in the world (Principle 6).

But for foreign journalists, they feel that as long as they can keep those people under control, it may serve better the government's purpose."
