As bloggers, young people develop crucial skills with language, tone their critical thinking muscles, and come to understand their relationship to the world."

The Real Revolution Is Openness, Clay Shirky Tells Tech Leaders - 0 views

  •  
    Mr. Shirky said. "The thing that drives me craziest in conversations with large institutions about large data sets is they want to know in advance what will happen. Why should we open up our data? To which the answer is, you open up your data to see where the value is. It's the value you can't even predict until you try it that you get back."

  •  
    "You could browse events and find interesting events that connections in your network were organizing or attending. You could also post upcoming events and promote them through your network and the LinkedIn Events page. It worked great and lots of people used it. Unfortunately, LinkedIn didn't talk much about it and hid it in their navigation bar so there were a lot of people who didn't even know it existed."
