He first asked why web 2.0, what qualifies the change to 2.0 from 1.0? Then he picked up on the human element and asked if people are different in web 2.0 and not just the technology. Andrew gave an example of HR person who used blog to roll out new policies. Employees were able to comment on the new ideas and see others’ comments. It greatly enhanced the process. Andrew also asked, “What is negative about web 2.0 or it is all just happiness?” Then he asked, “What about the issue of increased egalitarianism in Web 2.0? Is this all good? Did we have hierarchies for a good reason or no reason? Finally Andrew asked how the consumer web will impact the enterprise in 3 to 5 years? How will the openness of web 2.0 play out in enterprise?

Journalists are using Twitter to engage with their audience, connect with sources and continue building their personal brands. The 140-character format forces writers to focus their attention and get to the point quickly. But this isn’t just sound-bite style reporting. I talked with some reporters about Twitter () and how they use it.

Response to an email Posted by: pmacoun in Technology Musings, tags: 21stcenturyskills I recently received an email response from someone kind enough to read my most recent blog posts. The response was honest and thoughtful and I couldn't get it out of my head. I responded by email and was given permission to post my response here. The quotes are the original email remarks. I am a little more skeptical though. Over the past 2000 years, 'classical education' (is there such a thing?) has delivered the greatest minds known to us; the scientists, the poets, the musicians, the architects, engineers, linguists and, above all, the philosophers. I`m not convinced that the Industrial model of education that we have today IS the type of education that has existed over the past 2000 years. It has been argued that our current system emerged as a way to mass educate students to participate in an industrial society. Before that education consisted of more of an apprenticeship model. This learning happened in a social context that gave the content real world relevance. I`m not an expert on what it was like to be an apprentice but I would guess that it involved a lot of conversation and working through problems with other people you trust and respect. I think that the power of these new internet tools and Personal Learning Networks is that they can allow us and our students to go out and find mentors andpeople we trust and learn with and from them. Sort of like a high tech apprenticeship-mentoring model. Your comment makes me think of Einstein, who we hold up as one of the greatest minds of our time. He did not do well in our `Classical`schooling system and for most of his professional career worked through his ideas and thoughts in letters to colleagues. Think what he could have accomplished if he had had a blog :) I fear is that we lack the rigour that produced the great Renaissance men; that technology is raising very clever young people, but also

But what's the point? What's in it for us, as users? We offer below three models of value that we suspect will be found in the Real Time Web. They are the concepts that underly the vision described above at the top of this post. Those concepts are Ambiance, Automation and Emergence. This is just an initial exploration of ideas, reality will undoubtedly be more complicated shortly. We welcome your participation in thinking about this part of the fast-approaching future of the web.

We're in this difficult transitional period where it is unclear how the writers, reporters, researchers and editors are all going to be paid for their efforts in the post- newsprint world. But to me, it's just a transitional problem; in 25 years we'll be in a better place because we went through this transition.
