"The promise of the open web looks increasingly uncertain...But all the things that matter will be controlled and owned by a very small number of Big Web companies. Your identity will be your accounts at Facebook, Google and Twitter, not the domain name you own."

The Web and the Wisdom of Crowds

"I've got no larger point here, other than that this yet another reminder (at least for me) that we should be suspicious of large points, especially when it comes to the web. Like everything else, the internet remains a flurry of contradictions. It makes us stupider and smarter."

When We're Cowed by the Crowd

"And yet, while the Web has enabled new forms of collective action, it has also enabled new kinds of collective stupidity. Groupthink is now more widespread, as we cope with the excess of available information by outsourcing our beliefs to celebrities, pundits and Facebook friends. Instead of thinking for ourselves, we simply cite what's already been cited."

Are You Fun to Follow on Twitter?

"In a common place environment, at an inappropriate hour, do we perceive beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize talent in an unexpected context? I would add: Do we take time to reflect on the events of our day — to add our own interpretation? When things strike us as unusual or lovely, do we take time to note them?" from Harvard Business Review.
