    Clay Shirky does it again!

    As [Kimberley] was drowning Wednesday in #PLENK2010 feeds, someone threw [her] a lifeline (Clay Shirkey -- "It's not information overload, it's filter failure") -- via Twitter. There are so many really well versed Meta-brainiacs in this course (and [she uses] the term with great reverence and affection) that it is very easy to feel like something is bad wrong with you if you cannot keep up with everything. ... How is it possible to make so many connection so quickly? How is everyone wrapping their heads around this stuff?"

    "It's Not Information Overload. It's Filter Failure." Clay Shirky speaking and Web2.0 Expo in 2008 between "Here comes everybody" and "Cognitive surplus". There was an interesting, somewhat negative, reaction from George Siemens when this video was mentioned in the Friday discussion ...

    I think this video was selected by Kimberly because the title chimed with the problems of coping with the amount of information that is being generated by the PLENK2010 MOOC. But it contains other interesting messages as well. For example the issue of privacy in social networks and issues around group work in social networks and the problems that may have for educational institutions.
